Alignment of the protein sequences Pb, Mc, Nc, and Xd predicted from the sequences of genes carRA from Phycomyces blakesleeanus, al-2 (ref. 31; GenBank accession no. L27652) from Neurospora crassa, crtYB (ref. 32; accession no. AJ133646) from Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous (syn. Rhodomyces dendrorhous and Phaffia rhodozyma), and carRP (ref. 33; accession no. AJ250827) from Mucor circinelloides. The line marks the putative cleavage site in the Phycomyces sequence at the approximate limit of the lycopene cyclase and phytoene synthase domains. The black circles locate the mutations in six Phycomyces color mutants. The arrowheads indicate the presence of introns in the gene sequence.
