Bioinformatics identification and transcript profile analysis of the mitogen-activated protein kinase gene family in the diploid woodland strawberry Fragaria vesca
Fig 2
Multiple sequence alignment of the kinase domains of strawberry MAPK proteins.
(A) Eukaryotic MAPK kinase primary structure: blue areas represent regions containing the eleven domains (I–XI) that are found in all serine/threonine protein kinases; gray areas indicate regions that are less conserved. (B) Alignment of the kinase domains for 12 strawberry MAPK proteins. Alignment was performed using ClustalX 2.0.12 and displayed using GeneDoc. Identical sequences are highlighted in black, and similar residues are shown in gray shading. The 11 kinase domains are highlighted using Roman numerals (I to XI) above the sequence. The P-loop, C-loop, activation-loop motifs and CD domain are indicated by red boxes above the alignments. The conserved threonine and tyrosine residues TXY are indicated using asterisks. Fv: F. vesca.
