QuickView for R-%20genes (biogroup)

Description:: R-bodies are highly insoluble protein ribbons which coil into cylindrical structures in the cell and the genes for their synthesis and assembly are encoded on a plasmid. One of these three proteins is RebB, which this entry represents.RebB is one of three proteins necessary for the production of R- bodies, refractile inclusion bodies produced by a small number of bacterial species, essential for the expression of the killing trait of the endosymbiont bacteria that produce them for attack upon the host Paramecium. Note that many members are uncharacterised proteins.
