The calpain domain of the maize DEK1 protein contains the conserved catalytic triad and functions as a cysteine proteinase.

The Journal of biological chemistry - 5 Sept 2003

Abstract excerpt

Development of the aleurone layer of maize grains requires the activity of the Defective kernel 1 (Dek1) gene, encoding a predicted 240-kDa membrane-anchored protein with a C terminus similar to animal calpain domain II&III. Three-dimensional modeling shows that DEK1 domain II contains a conserve...
