Figure 5. Similarity among Nvj1 orthologs.
(A) Percent indentity in pairwise comparisons of protein sequence alignments (ClustalW2; 42) (B) Alignment of putative Osh1 binding motifs. (C) Alignment of putative Vac8 binding motifs (D) Alignments through putative membrane-spanning domains. Shaded sections highlight putative hydrophobic core and the membrane-spanning sequences. (E) Predicted domain composition of Nvj1 orthologs. Functional membrane anchor (red), membrane-spanning domain (green), Osh1-binding motif (blue), and Vac8-binding motif (orange). The two grey boxes are putative membrane anchors that do not function efficiently in S. cerevisiae, but likely do so in their native hosts.
