Figure 2.

Nucleotide and predicted amino acid sequences of the β-primeverosidase cDNA from a cultivar for green tea (C. sinensis var sinensis cv Yabukita). Peptide sequences determined from the purified protein are underlined. Arrow indicates the position of the N-terminal amino acid sequence of the purified protein and also the possible cleavage site predicted by PSORT analysis. Possible N-glycosylation sites are boxed. The catalytic residues in the sequence motifs conserved in family 1 glycosyl hydrolases are double underlined.
