Table I. Comparison of the N’-terminal regions of CYPs that contain chimeric signals for bimodal targeting.
The N-terminal amino acid 1–36 sequence regions were analyzed using ExPaSy (Expert Protein Analysis System) molecular biology server of the Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics. The number of + indicates the degree of α-helicity or hydrophobicity.
Signal parameters | CYP1A1 | CYP2B1 | CYP2E1 |
---|---|---|---|
α-Helicity | + + | + + + | + |
Hydrophobicity | + + + | + + + + + | + + |
Stability | Stable | Very stable | Unstable |
