Based on the common amino acid sequence motif and the conserved structural features, LEA proteins are basically divided into six groups. Group 1 LEA proteins (LEA1) have an internal 20-residue amino acid motif and are largely unordered in solution, highly hydrophilic, heat-stable and associated with tolerance to water stress resulting from desiccation, cold shock and salt. Key words: LEA1 proteins; 20-residue amino acids motif; function; structure; promoter late embryogenesis abundant protein LEA 1981 Dure [1] Gosspypium hirsutum mrna Lea mrna LEA LEA [2-4] LEA [5-11] LEA 20 LEA [12-17] LEA [18-21] LEA LEA LEA 6 1 LEA (LEA1) [6,22-24] NCBI Genebank ( ) (ZJY03A18) (200621) * yzzheng@szu.edu.cn
