Fig 6. Multiple sequence alignment (MSA) of the K-segments with preceding ϕ-segments in the K₆ dehydrin and the C-terminal K-segment with preceding ϕ-segment in the Y₁SK₂ dehydrin.

A) MSA generated running MUSCLE with the default parameters, and visualized using Seaview [52,54]. The K-segment is shown bound by a black box. Amino acid colors are as described in Fig 5. B) Character height diagram generated using MulitDisp [65]. Red letters indicate residues that are conserved in more than 50% of the sequences while blue letters indicate residues that are conserved in less than 50% of the sequences.
