PlanTAP families
We have determined a comparative set of transcription associated protein TAP families which are focused on, but not limited to, land plants. Beside transcription factors (TF), extensively studied in seed plants, PlanTAPDB includes transcriptional regulators (TR) and putative TAPs and covers a broad taxonomic range including algae and a moss. For detailed description of TAP classifications see the category page.
Gene clusters were built by using PSI-BLAST searches and subsequent filtering and clustering steps followed by a comprehensive manual annotation procedure. Phylogenies were created in an automated way for all families using a combination of distance and maximum likelihood methods.
The TAP families are listed below, grouped according to their functional
category, and link to the corresponding family entries.
