2015, Molecular Genetics and MetabolismCitation Excerpt :SFMBT also contains the conserved protein-interacting SAM domain [30,31]. It has been shown that the SAM domains are able to self-associate, bind to other SAM domains and form heterotypic interactions with other, non-SAM domain-containing proteins [32,33]. Importantly, SAM domains have been shown to form a helical polymer structure, which provides a possible mechanism for the extension of PcG complexes [34].
