Type: | Domain | Name: | Basic leucine-zipper, C-terminal |
Description: | Basic leucine-zipper (bZIP) proteins are found in eukaryotes. They are typically between 174 and 411 amino acids in length. Various bZIP proteins have been found and shown to play a role in seed-specific gene expression. bZIP binds to the alpha-globulin gene promoter, but not to promoters of other major storage genes such as glutelin, prolamin and albumin []. This entry represents a C-terminal domain found in bZIP proteins. It is found in association with . There is a conserved KVK sequence motif and a single completely conserved residue K that may be functionally important. | Short Name: | Basic_leucine-zipper_C |
