Description | This entry represents a domain found predominantly in plant proteins, including Probable nucleoredoxin 1 (NRX1) and Protein VACUOLELESS GAMETOPHYTES (VLG) from Arabidopsis thaliana. This region is found at the C- terminal end of NRX1, which is likely to be a thiol-disulfide oxidoreductase required for pollen tube growth and pollen function in the pistil [ , . VLG is essential for development of both female (megagametogenesis) and male (microgametogenesis) gametophytes by promoting the formation of large vacuoles early in development, maybe via the regulation of vesicular fusion [ ].This domain, which is rich in cysteines and histidines, is termed DC1 for divergent C1 domain as it has a pattern of conservation that is similar to that found in ( ). It probably binds to two zinc ions and bind to molecules such as diacylglycerol. | Name | DC1 |
