Contrasting duplication patterns reflect functional diversities of ubiquitin and ubiquitin‐like protein modifiers in plants

Abstract excerpt

Ubiquitin (Ub) and Ub-like proteins, collectively forming the ubiquiton family, regulate nearly all aspects of cellular processes via post-translational modifications. Studies devoted to specific members suggested a large expansion of this family in plants; however, a lack of systematic analysis hinders the comparison of individual members at both evolutionary history and functional divergence levels, which may...
