Sequence comparison of CeDGAT1 with DGAT1s from other species. PtDGAT1 (Phaeodactylum tricornutum, accession no. ADY76581.1), TpDGAT1 (Thalassiosira pseudonana, accession no. XP_002287215.1), AtDGAT1 (Arabidopsis thaliana, accession no. CAB45373.1), BnDGAT1 (Brassica napus, accession no. AAF64065.1), GmDGAT1a (Glycine max, accession no. BAE93460.1), NtDGAT1 (Nicotiana tabacum, accession no. AAF19345.1), RcDGAT1 (Ricinus communis, accession no. AAR11479.1), TmDGAT1 (Tropaeolum majus, accession no. AAM03340.2), VfDGAT1 (Vernicia fordii, accession no. ABC94471.1), and ZmDGAT1 (Zea mays, accession no. ABV91586.1). Identical amino acid residues are highlighted in black. Conserved motifs or putative signatures are boxed, such as the acyl-CoA binding signature (I); the fatty acid protein signature (II), which contains a tyrosine phosphorylation site (★); the DAG-binding site (III); and the putative endoplasmic reticulum retrieval motif in the C-terminus (IV). The highly conserved proline and serine residues are marked by asterisks. The region containing a conserved leucine repeat (L) is also marked
