Alignment of selected regions of YciM/LapB and FtsH proteins from different species by ClustalW2 analysis. The YciM sequence alignment included the TPR2, TPR3, and rubredoxin-like domains, while the FtsH sequence alignment included the periplasmic and four-helix bindle domains. YciM/LapB protein sequences used were from E. coli (P0AB58), Alteromonas sp. (A0A5H3A1J7), Haemophilus influenzae (P44130), Aliivibrio fischeri (Q5E3Z5), and Citrobacter werkmanii (A0A090TYQ6). FtsH protein sequences used were from E. coli (P0AAI3), Thermotoga maritima (Q9WZ49), and Arabidopsis thaliana (Q39102).
