Efficient identification of NLR by using a genome-wide protein domain and motif survey program, Ex-DOMAIN.

ABSTRACT: Genomic and amino acid sequences of organisms are freely available from various public databases. We designed a genome-wide survey program, named "Ex-DOMAIN" (exhaustive domain and motif annotator using InterProScan), of protein domains and motifs to aid in the identification and characterization of proteins by using the InterProScan sequence analysis application, which can display information and annotations of targeted proteins and genes, conserved protein domains and motifs, chromosomal locations, and structural diversities of target proteins. In this study, we indicated the disease resistance genes (proteins) that play an important role in defense against pathogens in Arabidopsis thaliana (thale cress) and Cucumis sativus (cucumber), by searches based on the conserved pro
