Protein Domain : MEI2-like, RNA recognition motif 1 IPR034453

Type	Domain
Description	This entry represents the RNA recognition motif 1 (RRM1) of Mei2-like proteins. Mei2-like proteins represent an ancient eukaryotic RNA-binding proteins family [ ]. Their corresponding Mei2-like genes appear to have arisen early in eukaryote evolution, been lost from some lineages such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae and metazoans, and diversified in the plant lineage []. The plant Mei2-like genes may function in cell fate specification during development, rather than as stimulators of meiosis [, ]. Members of the Mei2-like family contain three RNA recognition motifs (RRMs). The C-terminal RRM (RRM3) is unique to Mei2-like proteins and it is highly conserved between plants and fungi [].
