Leucine-rich repeat

From Proteopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

The leucine-rich repeat (LRR) proteins are a large family of over 60,000 proteins found in viruses, bacteria, archaea, and eukaryotes that feature horseshoe- or arc-shaped domains made of leucine-rich repeating motifs.[1] Presently, at least 144 structures with leucine-rich repeats are deposited at the RCSB Protein Data Bank.[2]
