| Description | This entry contains a subset of the AS2/LOB (ASYMMETRIC LEAVES 2/LATERAL ORGAN BOUNDARIES) gene family that are highly homologous and plant specific.The N terminus contains a conserved approximately 100-amino acid domain (the LOB domain) that is present in A. thaliana proteins and in proteins from a variety of other plant species. Genes encoding LOB domain (LBD) proteins are expressed in a variety of temporal- and tissue-specific patterns, suggesting that they may function in diverse processes [ , ]. The LOB domain contains conserved blocks of amino acids that identify the LBD gene family. In particular, a conserved C-x(2)-C-x(6)-C-x(3)-C motif, which is defining feature of the LOB domain, is present in all LBD proteins. It is possible that this motif forms a new zinc finger []. |
