The Kelch motif is a region of protein sequence found widely in proteins from bacteria and eukaryotes.[2] This sequence motif is composed of about 50 amino acid residues which form a structure of a four stranded beta-sheet "blade". This sequence motif is found in between five and eight tandem copies per protein which fold together to form a larger circular solenoid structure called a beta-propeller domain.
