Glycine-rich proteins as structural components of plant cell walls
... The primary structure of GRPs GRPs are characterized by their high content of glycine residues. GRPs, however, are not necessarily structural proteins, as RNA-binding proteins also have glycine-rich domains [7–9]. Since this article is focused on structural GRPs localized in the cell wall, only prot ...
