Protein type and lifestyle contribute to the evolution of low complexity regions in proteins of plant colonizing fungi

Abstract: Background: Interactions between plants and fungi range from mutual symbiosis to parasitism. Fungi secrete proteins (termed effectors) to establish different forms of interactions with host plants. Such proteins are thought to coevolve with their molecular plant targets, and this can favor the emergence of novel alleles of fungal effector proteins. Low complexity regions in protein sequences are abundant in eukaryotes and were shown to contribute to the formation of novel protein sequences. This suggests that … Show more
