the histone-like protein hu is the most-abundant dna-binding protein in bacteria. the hu protein non-specifically binds and bends dna as a hetero- or homodimer, and can participate in dna supercoiling and dna condensation. it also takes part in dna functions such as replication, recombination, and repair. hu does not recognize any specific sequences but shows a certain degree of specificity to ...

microtubule affinity-regulating kinase 2 (mark2) protein has a substantial role in regulation of vital cellular processes like induction of polarity, regulation of cell junctions, cytoskeleton structure and cell differentiation. the abnormal function of this protein has been associated with a number of pathological conditions like alzheimer disease, autism, several carcinomas and development of...

BACKGROUND Germin-like superfamily members are ubiquitously expressed in various plant species and play important roles in plant development and defense. Although several GLPs have been identified in peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.), their roles in development and defense remain unknown. In this research, we study the spatiotemporal expression of AhGLPs in peanut and their functions in plant defens...

Germin-like proteins (GLPs) are encoded by a family of genes found in all plants, and in terms of function, the GLPs are implicated in the response of plants to biotic and abiotic stresses. CchGLP is a gene encoding a GLP identified in a geminivirus-resistant Capsicum chinense Jacq accession named BG-3821, and it is important in geminivirus resistance when transferred to susceptible tobacco in ...
