From: Pepper CaREL1, a ubiquitin E3 ligase, regulates drought tolerance via the ABA-signalling pathway
Amino acid sequence analysis of the pepper CaREL1 (C apsicum a nnuum RING type E3 Ligase 1) protein. (a) Comparisons of the deduced amino acid sequence of the CaREL1 protein (accession no. KU557246) with those of the Solanum lycopersicum (accession no. XP_004245586.1), Solanum tuberosum (accession no. XP_006343956.1), Nicotiana tomentosiformis (accession no. XP_009591218.1), Vitis vinifera (accession no. XP_002280000.1), Malus domestica (accession no. XP_008392592.1), and Arabidopsis thaliana (accession no. NP_568590.1) proteins. Identical amino acid residues are highlighted in black, and the box reveals the Really Interesting New Gene (RING) zinc finger domain. (b) Phylogenetic tree analysis of the CaREL1 protein. Blast search was performed using the deduced amino acid sequences of the CaREL1 gene, and the top-ranked sequences from each plant species were collected. (c) Alignment of the RING zinc finger C3H2C3-type domain. Asterisks indicate conserved cysteine (C) and histidine (H) residues.
