Abstract

This entry contains proteins which have a Greek key motif [ 1 ]. They are all structurally related to the beta/gamma crystallin superfamily. This superfamily of proteins includes:

  • Beta and gamma crystallins
  • Yeast killer toxin
  • Killer toxin-like protein SKLP
  • Antifungal protein, AFP1
  • Plant antimicrobial protein, MIAMP1
  • Streptomyces metalloproteinase inhibitor, SMPI [ 2 ].
