Figure 4

Alignments of pheromone precursor protein sequences of mushroom forming fungi V. volvacea (Vv), S. commune (Sc), C. cinerea (Cc), L. bicolor (Lb), and F. velutipes (Fv), showing typical conservation of the CAAX motifs, and a Glu (E) at a position ∼10 AA upstream from the CAAX motif, which are both needed for proper maturation. Conservation of AAs is indicated by shading with black (complete), purple (high), and light blue (medium).
