Five amino acid mismatches in the zinc-finger domains of Cellulose Synthase 5 and Cellulose Synthase 6 cooperatively modulate their functional properties by controlling homodimerization in Arabidopsis.

Abstract excerpt

Cellulose synthase 5 (CESA5) and CESA6 are known to share substantial functional overlap. In the zinc-finger domain (ZN) of CESA5, there are five amino acid (AA) mismatches when compared to CESA6. These mismatches in CESA5 were replaced with their CESA6 counterparts one by one until all were replaced, generating nine engineered CESA5s. Each N-terminal enhanced yellow fluorescent protein-tagged engineered CESA5...
