TI  - The WD repeat: a common architecture for diverse functions.
PG  - 181-5
AB  - Our knowledge of the large family of proteins that contain the WD repeat
      continues to accumulate. The WD-repeat proteins are found in all eukaryotes and
      are implicated in a wide variety of crucial functions. The solution of the
      three-dimensional structure of one WD-repeat protein and the assumption that the 
      structure will be common to all members of this family has allowed subfamilies of
      WD-repeat proteins to be defined on the basis of probable surface similarity.
      Proteins that have very similar surfaces are likely to have common binding
      partners and similar functions.
