Multidomain genes

Avian multidomain genes and multigene families their evolution and function... [Pg.135]

The Ca2+-dependent neutral proteases called calpains are found within the cells of higher animals. The 705-residue multidomain peptide chain of a chicken calpain contains a papain-like domain as well as a calmodulin-like domain.328 It presumably arose from fusion of the genes of these proteins. At least six calpains with similar properties are known.329 Some have a preference for myofibrillar proteins or neurofilaments.330 They presumably function in normal turnover of these proteins and may play a role in numerous calcium-activated cellular processes.331-3323... [Pg.619]

A related gene family is present in the same gene cluster and encodes for proteins containing an S 100-like domain fused to a larger peptide. These proteins include trichohyalin, filaggrin, and repetin, which are multidomain proteins involved in epidermal differentiation (Marenholz et al., 2001 Huber et al., 2005) and are classified as a separate family. [Pg.94]
