Poxviral Ankyrin Proteins [PDF]
Viruses, 2015 Multiple repeats of the ankyrin motif (ANK) are ubiquitous throughout the kingdoms of life but are absent from most viruses. The main exception to this is the poxvirus family, and specifically the chordopoxviruses, with ANK repeat proteins present in all

Ankyrin‐2 genetic variants: A case of Ankyrin‐B syndrome [PDF]
Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, 2022 Inherited cardiac arrhythmias (ICA) have become one of the leading causes of sudden cardiac death in people under 40 years old. Variants in the ankyrin‐B or ankyrin‐2 genes will result in several cardiac arrhythmias ranging from sinus node dysfunction to

Wolbachia uses ankyrin repeats to target specific fly proteins [PDF]
mBioArthropods, the most diverse phylum on Earth, are hosts to a plethora of bacterial parasites that secrete various effectors of unknown function during infection. The most prevalent of these is the intracellular bacterium Wolbachia pipientis.

The Diversity and Evolution of Wolbachia Ankyrin Repeat Domain Genes [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Ankyrin repeat domain-encoding genes are common in the eukaryotic and viral domains of life, but they are rare in bacteria, the exception being a few obligate or facultative intracellular Proteobacteria species.

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Mammalian brain circuits are wired by dynamic formation and remodeling during development to produce a balance of excitatory and inhibitory synapses. Synaptic regulation is mediated by a complex network of proteins including immunoglobulin (Ig)- class ...
