Alkali metal cation transporter homologues in extremly halotolerant Hortaea werneckii.

Cation transporter homologues in H. werneckii were identified by blast searches of H. werneckii ORF and protein databases with the following S. cerevisiae S288C protein queries: Trk1 (YJL129C), Trk2 (YKR050W), Tok1 (YJL093C), Kha1 (YJL094C), Mrs7 (YPR125W), Nha1 (YLR138W), Vnx1 (YNL321W), Nhx1 (YDR456W), Ena1 (YDR040C), Ena2 (YDR039C), Ena5 (YDR038C) and Pho89 (YBR296C).aA part of N-terminal or C-terminal protein sequence might be missing.bThe C-terminal part of the protein sequence is not included in the estimation of lenght, as the overlap of the 5′ and 3′ ORFs coding the gene was to short to merge them unumbigously.
