SMART: CG-1 domain annotation

CG-1

SMART accession number:	SM01076
Description:	CG-1 domains are highly conserved domains of about 130 amino-acid residues containing a predicted bipartite NLS and named after a partial cDNA clone isolated from parsley encoding a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein (PUBMED:8075408). CG-1 domains are associated with CAMTA proteins (for CAlModulin -binding Transcription Activator) that are transcription factors containing a calmodulin -binding domain and ankyrins (ANK) motifs (PUBMED:11925432).
Interpro abstract (IPR005559):	CG-1 domains are highly conserved domains of about 130 amino-acid residues containing a predicted bipartite nuclear localisation signal. They are named after a partial cDNA clone isolated from parsley encoding a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein [(PUBMED:8075408)]. CG-1 domains are found in CAMTA proteins (for CAlModulin -binding Transcription Activator), which are transcription factors containing a calmodulin-binding domain and ankyrin repeats [(PUBMED:11925432)].

- Display abstract
- A partial cDNA clone (CG-1) encoding a sequence-specific DNA-bindingprotein (CG-1) was isolated from a parsley (Petroselinum crispum L.) cDNAexpression library by a DNA-ligand screening. The nucleotide sequence CGCGis a required motif in this protein's binding site. Interestingly, themRNA coding for CG-1 accumulated rapidly and transiently in parsleycultured cells after treatment with UV-containing white light. Althoughthe target gene(s) for CG-1 has not been identified, its sequence-specificDNA binding and expression pattern, make CG-1 a possible member of a lightsignal transduction chain in parsley.
