InterPro domain: IPR027944

This entry represents the C terminus of the sieve element occlusion (SEO) proteins (also known as forisomes), which are phloem proteins accumulated during sieve element differentiation [ 1 , 2 ]. This domain seems to be non-essential for dimerisation during forisome assembly [ 3 ].
