| Description: | The BURP domain is found at the C-terminus of several different plant proteins. It was named after the proteins in which it was first identified: the BNM2 clone-derived protein from Brassica napus O65009; USPs and USP-like proteins P21746 P21747 Q06765 O24482; RD22 from Arabidopsis thaliana Q08298; and PG1beta from Lycopersicon esculentum Q40161. This domain is around 230 amino acid residues long. It possesses the following conserved features: two phenylalanine residues at its N-terminus; two cysteine residues; and four repeated cysteine-histidine motifs, arranged as: CH-X(10)-CH-X(25-27)-CH-X(25-26)-CH, where X can be any amino acid (PUBMED:9790599). The function of this domain is unknown. |

| InterPro abstract: | The BURP domain was named after the proteins in which it was first identified: BNM2, USP, RD22, and PG1beta. It is found in the C terminus of a number of plant cell wall proteins, which are defined not only by the BURP domain, but also by the overall similarity in their modular construction. The BURP domain-containing proteins consists of either three or four modules: (i) an N-terminal hydrophobic … expand |
