From: Identification of an ortholog of the eukaryotic RNA polymerase III subunit RPC34 in Crenarchaeota and Thaumarchaeota suggests specialization of RNA polymerases for coding and non-coding RNAs in Archaea

Figure 1

The archaeal RPC34 orthologs - Multiple sequence alignment of eukaryotic RPC34 proteins and their archaeal orthologs. The sequences are denoted by their GI numbers and species names. The positions of the first and the last residues of the aligned region in the corresponding protein are indicated for each sequence. The semi-transparent rectangles show regions that are aligned only in the respective groups of sequences. The cysteine residues comprising the Zn-finger motif are shown in reverse shading. Secondary structure predictions are shown underneath the respective groups of sequences. Secondary structure derived from the crystal structures of human RPC34 wHTH domain and a MarR family protein is also shown; 'H' indicates α-helix, 'E' indicates extended conformation (β-strand). The coloring is based on the consensus shown underneath the alignment of the RPC34 family; 'h' indicates hydrophobic residues (ACFGILMVWY), 'p' indicates polar residues (CDEHKNQR), 'a' indicates aromatic residues (WFYH), "s" indicated small residues (ACDGNPSTV).
