FIG. 6.

Conserved motif in the N-terminal domain of YpdF. (a) Location of the conserved motif in a number of YpdF homologs. The black box is the conserved short motif, and the line represents the variable N-terminal domain. Gray blocks represent the conserved C-terminal domains. (b) Amino acid alignment of the conserved motif. Two completely conserved sites, aspartate (D) and arginine (R), and one position dominated by aromatic residues are indicated by dots at the bottom. The numbers in brackets are the residue numbers corresponding to this N-terminal domain. Motif finding was performed using MEME (2).
