摘要

Ankyrin repeat (AR) motif is one of the most abundant repeat motifs found in eukaryotic proteins. It functions in mediating protein–protein interactions and regulating numerous biological functions. Interestingly, some AR-containing proteins are involved in epigenetic and transcriptional events. Our review aims to characterize the structure and post-translational modification of AR, summarize the prominent role of AR-containing proteins in epigenetic and transcriptional events, emphasizing the crucial functions mediated by AR motifs.
