Fig. 4.

Amino acid sequence architecture of the R8 protein. Coiled coil (CC) forming amino acid stretches were found in the N-terminal domain (red font) as determined using the COILS algorithm (Lupas et al. 1991; window = 14 aa, threshold >0.1). In the central region Nucleotide binding Apaf-1 R gene and CED4 homology (NB-ARC; van der Biezen and Jones 1998) can be distinguished (underlined). In the C-terminal region, leucine-rich repeat (LRR) regions matching the consensus lxxlxxlxxlxl can be distinguished (underlined red font). Figures indicate the position of the preceding amino acid residue in the protein
