Table 1.

Amino acid sequence identity and similarity of BcSUN1 to S. cerevisiae proteins in Group-I of the SUN family.

	Protein		C-terminal region
	Identity (%)	Similarity (%)	Identity (%)	Similarity (%)
SIM1	38.6	52.9	41.6	58.0
UTH1	36.6	47.9	46.2	57.3
NCA3	28.1	41.0	43.0	58.3
SUN4	33.7	48.6	43.4	57.5

Identity and similarity were computed with EMBOSS Needle from alignments of the entire sequences or the C-terminal regions only. Uniprot accession numbers for the S. cerevisiae proteins are as follows: P40472 (SIM1), P36135 (UTH1), P32493 (NCA3) and P53616 (SUN4).
