VHI/BRL2kin interaction candidates with strong signal strength. Column I: gene number; II: annotation from TAIR and NCBI web sites (http://www.arabidopsis.org/Blast/ and http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/BLAST/); III: presence of signal peptide (sp), transmembrane domain (tmd), or posttranslational modification (ptm) which are predicted to target the protein to membranes; IV: number of serine (S), threonine (T) and tyrosine (Y) embedded in phosphorylation target sequences from the DIPHOSPHO database (http://core.ist.temple.edu/pred/pred.html) (Diella et al., 2004); V: prediction of kinase recognition a: basophilic serine/threonine kinase group; b: kinase binding site group; c: acidophilic serine/threonine kinase group; d: phosphoserine/threonine binding group. H: high stringency (0.2 top percent); M: medium stringency (1 top percent).
