Fig. 2.—

Sequence alignment of the yeast class I myosins highlighting leucines and serines encoded by CUG. The protein sequence alignment represents part of the class I myosin alignment (for the complete alignment, see supplementary fig. S2, Supplementary Material online). Numbers on the left denote the residue numbers of the first amino acids of the sequences in this section of the alignment. All CUG positions occurring in the aligned class I myosin genes are highlighted. We assigned the most probable translation scheme to each species and translated the CUG codons accordingly. Blue and green boxes indicate CUG codons coding for leucine and serine, respectively.
