How can you use “erf” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
However, the average size of the core domains, the patterns of conserved residues, and the predicted secondary structures of the RecT/Redβ and ERF domains show no correspondence to each other, implying that there is no direct evolutionary link between these protein groups.
The only exceptions are the E. coli EHAP1 and the PF161 protein encoded in the Borrelia hermsii circular plasmid, which are fused to C-terminal fragments of the ERF protein (see below).
These fragments of the ERF protein are closely related to other ERF domains from related organisms and are unlikely to fold into the native conformation characteristic of the full-length ERF domain.
The sporadic distribution of this family among phylogenetically distant bacteria, along with its presence in several prophages, suggests that, like the RecT/Redβ and ERF superfamilies, at least the bacterial RAD52-proteins might be of predominantly phage origin.
The three dimensional structure of eRF1 has been published recently and could help to design mutants affected in stop codon context interaction [ 31].
