Analysis of the requirements to support import of soybean rps10 into mitochondria. Helical wheel projections of maize Rps10 protein, imported soybean rps10 protein, and unimportable soybean rps10 proteins are shown. The first amino acid is at the interior with successive amino acids moving outwards on the helix in a clockwise manner. The amino acids are colored according to chemical properties, of side chain Red = charged, Green = hydrophobic, and Blue = polar. The first 20 amino acids of each protein are depicted below the helical projection with coloring as described above. Structural prediction of secondary is indicated below in θXXθθ.
