Conserved and unique characteristics of EuPEBP protein families. Alignment illustrating conservation of primary protein structure in EuPEBP proteins. In total, 172 core residues (numbered relative to Arabidopsis thaliana FT, for the sake of consistency with previous literature) are shown in the alignment, for the whole family (All), for non-angiosperm MFT (NaMFT), and for angiosperm MFT, TCB and FT proteins (AnMFT, AnTCB, AnFT respectively). Residues where the same amino acid is present in >30% are shown by the corresponding amino acid letter. Where there is no consensus at all, – is shown, where a residue is absent, #. Where there is >30% consensus, but <50% ('weak consensus') the amino acid is shown in grey without shading. Residues with >50% consensus are shaded: light blue 75% < 50% ('consensus'); mid-blue 90%<75% (‘conserved’), royal blue 95%<90% (‘highly conserved’), dark blue 99%<95% (‘very highly conserved’), dark red >99% (‘invariant’). Structural features are annotated above the alignment, including the 14-3-3 interaction surface (in two parts, a and b), the P-loop motif and the ‘LYN triad’. Key amino acids previously identified as conferring specificity are indicated by *
