Figure 2.
Protein sequence homology alignments of plant UGGPase, UGPase, and UT. Sequences in bold indicate the seven peptide sequences obtained from the peptide microsequencing of the purified protein. Underlined sequences indicate conserved sequences used for the preparation of degenerate primers for the PCR cloning of the melon genes. Accession numbers of the sequence presented are UGGPase: melon (DQ399739), Arabidopsis (AF360236), and pea (AB178642); UT: melon (DQ445484), potato (TC28197), and Arabidopsis (NM_121825); UGPase: melon (DQ445483), Arabidopsis (NM_121737), potato (U20345), and barley (Q07131).
