MTN26 family protein
Superfamily: | Cysteine Rich Peptides |
Contact: | Kevin Silverstein |
Organization: | University of Minnesota |
Source: | Silverstein, K.A.T., Moskal, W.A., Jr., Wu, H., Underwood, B.A., Graham, M.A., Town, C.D, and VandenBosch, K.A. (2007) Small cysteine peptides resembling antimicrobial peptides have been under-predicted in plants. Plant J. 51(2):262-80 |
Criteria: | Iterative HMM family-based searches, starting with known cysteine-rich antimicrobial sequences. |
Gene Name: | MTN26L1 |
Gene Description: | MtN26 family protein precursor |
MSU Annotation: | MTN26L1 - MtN26 family protein precursor |
Comment: | Pseudogene. Annotated gene is missing key cysteines that appear just upstream in the same exon. Could not find the remaining exons of this likely pseudogene. |

Gene Name: | MTN26L2 |
Gene Description: | MtN26 family protein precursor, expressed |
MSU Annotation: | MTN26L2 - MtN26 family protein precursor, expressed |
Structural Annotation: | |
Gene Name: | MTN26L3 |
Gene Description: | MtN26 family protein precursor, putative |
MSU Annotation: | MTN26L3 - MtN26 family protein precursor, putative |
Structural Annotation: | |
Gene Name: | MTN26L4 |
Gene Description: | MtN26 family protein precursor |
MSU Annotation: | MTN26L4 - MtN26 family protein precursor, expressed |
Comment: | Pseudogene. High-confidence pseudogene is highly similar to an adjacent paralog plus several paralogs elsewhere. The gene would be intact except that the second canonical donor splice site is lost (it is a 'ct' instead of 'gt', though it appears in precisely the right spot relative to all paralogs). |

Gene Name: | MTN26L5 |
Gene Description: | MtN26 family protein precursor |
MSU Annotation: | MTN26L5 - MtN26 family protein precursor, expressed |
Comment: | This annotation extends across two TIGR loci. This correction is of high confidence due to alignment with close homologs from wheat and other species. |
