Alignment of the sugar beet Hs1^pro-1 protein and the plant Hs1^pro-1-related proteins available in the database. Alignments were realized using the ClustalX program (Altschul et al., 1990) and the Hs1^pro-1 protein from sugar beet (U79733), the Hs1^pro-1-like proteins from Glycine max (AAG44839) and Pisum sativum (AAF67003), and from the two Arabidopsis AtHSPRO1 and AtHSPRO2 proteins. Identical amino acids are visualized with an asterisk (*) and similar ones with a colon (:). The imperfect LRR repeats (red amino acids and regions delimited by red lines) and the transmembrane domain (blue) defined in the Hs1^pro-1 protein are positioned.
