Sequences comparison of 50 nucleotides upstream of the start
codon (bold) for putative esterases/lipases of
S. solfataricus (SSO2493,
SSO2517, SSO2518, SSO2521), S.
acidocaldarius SAC1105, for the putative long
version of SSO2517 (indicated with an asterisk) and for a short
version of SAC1105 (indicated with a double asterisk). The
putative translational signals were highlighted as follows: BRE
motif, shadowed dark gray; Box A motif, shadowed gray;
Shine-Dalgarno sequence, boxed; A/T peak centered at –10,
italicized and bold; start codon, bold. A single asterisk (*)
denotes SsoNΔlong, and the double asterisk (**) denotes the
short version of the putative esterase from SAC1105.
