Figure 1From: The organ-specific expression of terpene synthase genes contributes to the terpene hydrocarbon composition of chamomile essential oilsAlignment of the amino acid sequences of MrTPS1, MrTPS2, MrTPS3, MrTPS4 and MrTPS5. Amino acids identical in all five proteins are shaded black and amino acids identical in four proteins are shaded gray. The highly conserved metal cofactor binding regions are labeled DDxxD and NDxxTxxxE/DDxxSxxxE, respectively. Amino acids belonging to a predicted signal peptide of MrTPS4 are underlined and shown in bold.Back to article page
