Structural and Phylogenetic Relationships among Plant and Animal Cystatins

The plant cystatins or phytocystatins (PhyCys) are cysteine proteinase inhibitors containing the QxVxG motif and have been placed in the cystatin superfamily of proteins. The primary sequences of PhyCys have a high degree of homology with the members of the cystatin family, but they resemble stefins...

description The plant cystatins or phytocystatins (PhyCys) are cysteine proteinase inhibitors containing the QxVxG motif and have been placed in the cystatin superfamily of proteins. The primary sequences of PhyCys have a high degree of homology with the members of the cystatin family, but they resemble stefins by the absence of disulfide bonds and cysteine residues. A multialignment and a phylogenetic analysis of 63 cystatins, 32 of which are PhyCys, demonstrate that all PhyCys cluster in a major evolutionary tree branch and support the classification of PhyCys as a new cystatin family. The PhyCys also possess a specific consensus sequence [LVI]-[AGT]-[RKE]-[FY]-[AS]-[VI]-x-[EDQV]-[HYFQ]-N placed on the region corresponding to a predictable amino-terminal α-helix. This sequence can be used to specifically identify PhyCys on protein data banks and to differentiate them from the other members of the superfamily.
