Abstract excerpt
CRINKLY4 is a growth factor-like plant receptor kinase designated as CR4 in Zea mays and ACR4 in Arabidopsis. Using the TOXCAT system, a genetic assay that measures helix interactions in a natural membrane environment, we have previously demonstrated that the dimerization potential of the ACR4 transmembrane (TM) domain is significantly weaker than that of CR4 TM domain, even though 13 of the 24 residues are...
