Alignment of the 5′-UTR (A) and 3′-UTR (B) regions of soybean accA cDNAs. The ATG start codons are boxed and the terminator codons are underlined. Note that the deletion in clones 17a and 21a (marked with arrowheads) result in a frame shift in the coding region (shown by uppercase letters) such that the C terminus of the protein encoded by these clones is different from the one encoded in clones 1b and 8a. C, Alignment of a segment of ACCase α-CT subunits from different organisms. The region considered to be involved in acetyl CoA binding (Li and Cronan, 1992b) is underlined. All sequences are aligned to the E. coli protein.
