(See previous page)The bioinformatical properties of Pisum sativum Chlorophyll a/b Binding Protein (PsChla/bBP). (A) Alignment of the deduced amino acid sequence of the PsChla/bBP cDNA with other plant homologues. GenBank accession nos. P. sativum (ABN49454), P sativum (AAW31511), Medicago sativum (AAC25775), Cicer arieitnium (CAA10284). The deduced protein sequence identifies a region containing Chlorophyll a/b binding super family. (B) Phylogenetic analysis of the of nucleotide sequence of PsChla/bBP. Dendogram showing the phylogenetic relationship between the nucleotide sequence of PsChla/bBP with other Chla/bBP. (C) Taxonomic coverage represents a taxonomic range of sequences associated with the sequence of reference. A taxonomic lineage analysis showed the protein is highly conserved amongst the plant kingdom.
