An extended β-finger motif is near-ubiquitous in kinase fusion proteins

Show abstract
Kinase fusion proteins (KFPs) are immune receptors that confer disease resistance in wheat (Triticum aestivum) and barley (Hordeum vulgare). We discovered that KFPs with a confirmed function share an extended {beta}-finger motif, a Poaceae-specific feature that originated [~]98 million years ago. The genes encoding these receptors are among the most highly expressed within the plant KFP repertoire, suggesting that elevated transcript abundance is a hallmark of their disease resistance function.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
