FIGURE 3:

EYE3 is a member of the ABC1 kinase family. (A) Clustal alignment of the amino acid sequence of the region, including the kinase-active site of the EYE3 protein (residues 549–654) with related ABC1 kinases in C. reinhardtii. Predicted amino acid sequences of proteins supported by gene models in version 4 of the genome are shown: ABC1 kinases in the chloroplast AKC3 (protein ID 205743) and AKC2 (protein ID 205779); predicted eyespot kinases Cr_113847 and Cr_104934; and ubiquinone synthesis protein COQ8 (protein ID 126076). Background shading denotes residues that are identical (black) or similar (gray) in ≥60% of the sequences. The residues in EYE3 used for generating peptide-directed antiserum are marked with asterisks. Positions of critical aspartate residues in the kinase-active site of EYE3 are marked with arrowheads. (B) Phylogram showing inferred relation between EYE3 and related ABC1 kinases in C. reinhardtii. Bootstrap values were calculated from 100 iterations using the neighbor-joining method.
