Sequences of the four Rubisco SSu isoforms from A. thaliana. The A. thaliana Rubisco structure presented in this study contains the RbcS1B isoform. Transit peptides were removed before analysis and residues are numbered relative to the mature peptide sequence. Conserved residues are boxed, strictly conserved residues have a red background and well conserved residues are shown in red letters. Gaps are represented by dots. Symbols above blocks of sequences annotate the Rubisco SSu secondary structure from PDB entry 5iu0: α, α-helix; β, β-strand; TT, strict β-turn. The secondary-structure elements were named αA, αB, βA, βB, βC and βD according to convention (Knight et al., 1990). The sequence alignment was created using GenBank accession numbers BAB09355.1 (RbcS1B), AAO29974.1 (RbcS2B), AAL47390.1 (RbcS3B) and AEE34594.1 (RbcS1A). |
