Alignment of spinach TSP9 with the amino acid sequences of putative homologous proteins deduced from ESTs of eight different plants. The arrow indicates the start of mature spinach TSP9. The alignment is done by using the CLUSTALW program (48). The threonine residues phosphorylated in TSP9 are indicated by the lowercase t above the sequence. The GenBank accession nos. are: Mesembryanthemum cristallinum, BE130175; Citrus sinensis, BQ623922; Glycine max, BG157421; Lycopersicon esculentum, BG643569; Vitus vinifera, BQ797569; Arabidopsis thaliana, AV533911; Allium cepa, AA451548; Marchantia polymorpha, AU081993.
