Stepwise and lineage-specific divergence of a major immune co-chaperone complex in leptosporangiate ferns

Protein-protein interactions are essential for proper cellular function and are often under strong evolutionary pressures to maintain their stability and specificity.

Protein-protein interactions are essential for proper cellular function and are often under strong evolutionary pressures to maintain their stability and specificity. In plants, a broadly distributed chaperone complex comprised of the RAR1 (REQUIRED FOR MLA12 RESISTANCE 1) and…
