Genome-wide analysis of the expansin gene superfamily reveals grapevine-specific structural and functional characteristics.

Genome-wide analysis of the expansin gene superfamily reveals grapevine-specific structural and functional characteristics.

<h4>Background</h4>Expansins are proteins that loosen plant cell walls in a pH-dependent manner, probably by increasing the relative movement among polymers thus causing irreversible expansion. The expansin superfamily (EXP) comprises four distinct families: expansin A (EXPA), expansin B...
