We are deeply saddened by the passing of Amos Bairoch (1957–2025), the creator of PROSITE. We wish to dedicate our latest paper, published shortly before his death, to him. He will always be a source of inspiration to us.
Our deepest condolences go out to his family and friends, and to all those who had the privilege of working with him. Rest in peace, Amos. Your work will live on long after you are gone.

Description
OVATE family proteins (OFPs) are a plant-specific family of regulatory proteins that function as transcriptional repressors and regulate multiple aspects of plant growth and development. They are characterized by a conserved C-terminal OVATE domain of approximately 70 amino acids [1,2,3].
The profile we developed covers the entire OVATE domain.
