FIG. 4.

Alignment of the conserved two-motif signature in the cupin proteins from B. subtilis, showing the GenBank identifier, the gene name, site in the genome (in kilobases from origin; sequences likely to be included in the section of the chromosome trapped in the prespore during septation are denoted by asterisks) (311), coding strand, details of the two motifs, total size of the protein, and its calculated pI. The sequences are subdivided on the basis of similarity. In the four two-domain proteins (YxaG, YwfC, YoaN, and YvrK), the first and second domains are designated a and b, respectively.
