Protein Domain : Small hydrophilic plant seed protein, conserved site IPR022377

Type  Conserved_site
Description  This entry represents a conserved site in hydrophilic plant seed proteins that are structurally related:Arabidopsis thaliana proteins GEA1 and GEA6Cotton late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) protein D-19Carrot EMB-1 proteinBarley LEA proteins B19.1A, B19.1B, B19.3 and B19.4Maize late embryogenesis abundant protein Emb564Radish late seed maturation protein p8B6Rice embryonic abundant protein Emp1Sunflower 10 Kd late embryogenesis abundant protein (DS10)Wheat Em proteinsThese proteins may play a role in equipping the seed for survival, maintaining a minimal level of hydration in the dry organism and preventing the denaturation of cytoplasmic components [ , ]. They may also play a role during imbibition by controlling water uptake.
