N- and C-terminal domains are indicated on the top. Known conserved structures of the DNA-binding domain (β1-4 and α) are highlighted in gray according to (7). The structured regions (β1-2 and α) of the C-terminal domain of AbrB from B. subtilis are highlighted in dark gray according to Olson et al.
[28]. Amino acid residues that were subjected to the substitution are framed. The consensus sequence resulting from this alignment is given on the bottom and the sizes of the amino acid code indicate the percentage of the similarity (100%, 77%, 65% and 42%).
