Figure S1 - Molecular Cloning, Characterization and Expression Profiling of a Ryanodine Receptor Gene in Asian Corn Borer, Ostrinia furnacalis (Guenée)

Analysis of the deduced OfRyR amino acid sequences. Predicted transmembrance domains were overlined and labeled TM1–TM6. Conserved residues for the putative EF-hand motifs, pore-forming segments, pore-helix, adenine ring binding sites (Y[GAST][VG][KTQSN]), nucleotide binding sites (GXGXXG) and potential CaM binding site were also overlined and labeled. The residues in OfRyR (I4967, R4983 and D4987), which play an important role in activity and conductance of the Ca2+ release channel were marked with triangles. Pentastar indicated glutamate (E4145) that is proposed to be involved in the Ca2+ sensitivity in OfRyR. (DOC)
