FIG. 5.

(A) Comparison of the deduced SplA amino acid sequences from B. subtilis (Bs) (8), B. amyloliquefaciens (Ba) (18) and TRAP from B. subtilis (11) and B. pumilus (Bp) (12). Lysines (K) and arginines (R) forming the KKR motif in TRAP (29) are shown in boldface type. (B) Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequences of SplA from B. subtilis and B. amyloliquefaciens. K and R residues are shown in boldface type. Below both sets of sequences, amino acids are denoted as identical (asterisks), highly similar (colons), or moderately similar (periods). Comparisons were run by using the ClustalW_mp Multiple Sequence Alignment site (http://www2.ebi.ac.uk/clustalw/).
