Molecular phylogeny of the kelch-repeat superfamily reveals an expansion of BTB/kelch proteins in animals
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The kelch motif is an ancient and evolutionarily-widespread sequence motif of 44–56 amino acids in length. It occurs as five to seven repeats that form a β-propeller tertiary structure. Over 28 kelch-repeat proteins have been sequenc...
