Figure 3.

A, Deduced amino acid sequence of the RNase-related potein from C. sepium. Since the Met at position 7 is probably the first amino acid, the residues preceding this Met are shown in lowercase. The sequence corresponding to the N-terminal sequence of the protein is underlined. Putative N-glycosylation sites are indicated in bold. The arrowheads indicate the positions of the intron sequences. B, Sequence comparison of RNase Rh from R. niveus and CalsepRRP. Deletions (gaps) have been introduced to maximize the homology, and identical residues are boxed.
