Abstract excerpt

Apextrin C-terminal (ApeC) is a novel protein domain with unknown functions, although early studies suggest that some ApeC-containing proteins (ACPs) bind to carbohydrates and have a role in development and immunity. Here we investigated the taxonomic distribution, sequence diversification and origin of ACPs in Metazoa. Most ACPs are present in invertebrates from aquatic or moist environments, including...
