Amino Acid Alignments of the A2 Helix of NF-YA and CCT Proteins.

Alignments were performed using the ClustalW program (Thompson et al., 2002). Amino acid residues conserved among listed proteins are shaded and gaps (dashes) were introduced for maximum matching. Below the alignment, the location of mutations that affect CCT proteins CO, VRN2, TOC1, PPR7 (co-9, co-5, co-7, ppd-H1, toc1-1, and vrn2), or NF-YA/HAP2 activity in vivo (X symbols) are indicated.
