Protein Domain : Casparian strip membrane protein domain IPR006702

Type  Domain
Description  This domain is found mainly in plant proteins known as Casparian strip membrane proteins (CASPs). CASPs are four-membrane-span proteins that mediate the deposition of Casparian strips in the endodermis by recruiting the lignin polymerization machinery. Interestingly, the CASP first extracellular loop was found conserved in euphyllophytes but absent in plants lacking Casparian strips [ , ].
