Domains as functional building blocks of plant proteins.
Emerging evidence in eukaryotic systems suggests that many proteins of diverse cellular processes are made up of protein domains that are well defined in both sequence and structure. This article updates the identification of many 'classic' eukaryotic protein domains in various plant cellular processes, with particular emphasis on the non-catalytic categories. We discuss the importance of domains to plant-protein functions and cellular networking, and the emergence of plant-specific domains.
