The uncoupling protein (UCP) family is a sub-category of mitochondrial anion-carrier proteins super-family and can be found in both animal and plant species [ 1].
To avoid confoundings with their previous nomenclature as well as with the gene families (Pv-fam-a-e and Pv-fam-g-i) identified in the genome issue [ 6], we propose to term them PvPIRA, PvPIRD, and PvPIRH as they clearly fall into the PIR proteins super-family [ 8].
Acetylcholinesterase is a member of the α/β hydrolase protein super family, with a significant role in acetylcholine-mediated neurotransmission.
These included substrates from the plant specific aquaporin proteins, belonging to the major intrinsic protein super family and known for regulating water status and processes such as petal opening and cell elongation [60] [62].
Adipocyte fatty acid-binding protein (A-FABP, also known as ap2 and FABP4), a member of the fatty acid binding protein super family, has recently been described as a novel adipokine, accounting for approximately 6% of total cellular proteins in mature adipocytes [2].
The chlorophyll binding motifs of these proteins are non-homologous to motifs found in the LHC protein super family [ 5, 12].
One should recall that GRXs and TRXs belong to the same protein super family because they have a common structural fold.
TRIM8 encodes a member of the tripartite-motif-containing (TRIM) protein super family involved in a broad range of biological processes, including carcinogenesis [ 5].
Adipocyte fatty acid binding protein (A-FABP, FABP4) is an adipokine, which is a member of the fatty acid binding protein super family and is highly expressed in the adipose tissue [ 1].
Cell or tissue-specific transrepression of CYP27B1 by 1α,25- OH 2 1α,25- OH 2lve multiple VD3Es located in maye dinvolveromultiplegions that enhance chromatin looping and interactions with protein super complexes of differing transcriptional abilities.
