FIG. 5.

Potential cleavage sites of PrcA. The aligned amino acid sequences for six PrcA genes are shown above. The two potential cleavage sites in PrcA proposed by Lee et al. (18) are indicated with arrows. The positions of the amino acids at the cleavage sites are numbered from the initial methionine with subscripts. The T. socranskii subsp. 04 is a partial sequence, and the numbering of amino acids refers to the start of the partial sequence. The second site is more conserved in the PrcA sequences. While it is not known if PrcA-II is cleaved, there is a conserved PH amino acid sequence at the corresponding position.
