Distribution of the conserved segments in the sequences of the dehydrins Cor47, Lti29, and Lti30 from Arabidopsis. The dehydrins constitute group 2 of the large family of the hydrophilic LEA proteins (Close, 1996; Bartels and Salamini, 2001). The amino acid sequences are as follows: Cor47, MAEEYKNNVPEHETPTVATEESPATTTEVTDRGLFDFLGKKEEEVKPQETTTLESEFDHKAGISEPELAAEHEEVKENKITLLEELGEKTEEDEENKPSVIEKLHRSNSSSSSSSDEEGEEKKEKKKKIVEGEEDKKGLVEKIKEKLPGHHDKTAEDDVPVSTTIPVPVSESVVEHDHPEIKEKLPGYHAKTTEEEVKKEKESDD; Lti29, MAEEYKNTYPEGETPKVATEESSAPEIKERGMFDFLKKKEEVKPQETTTLASEFEHKTGISEPESFVAKHEEEEHKPTLLEGLHQKHEEEEENKPSLLDKLHRSNSSSSSSSDEEGEDGEKPEEEEKKGFMDKIKEKLPGHSKKPEDSGVVNTTPLVETATPIADIPEEKKGFMDKIKEKLPGYHAKTTGEEEKKEKVSD; and Lti30, MNSHQNQTGVQKKGITEKIMEKLPGHHGPTNTGVVHHEKKGMTEKVMEQLPGHHGATGTGGVHHEKKGMTEKVMEQLPGHHGSHQTGTNTTYGTTNTGGVHHEKKSVTEKVMEKLPGHHGSHQTGTNTAYGTNTNVVHHEKKGIAEKIKEGLPGHHGTHKTGTTTSYGNTGVVHHENKST.
