A leucine-rich repeat variant with a novel repetitive protein structural motif

Abstract

The structure of the leucine-rich repeat variant protein reveals a novel fold consisting of alternating α- and 3_(10)-helices arranged in a right-handed superhelix that follows an N-terminal 4Fe:4S cluster-containing domain.
