Figure S1 - Structure-Function Relationships of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis Transcription Factor WhiB1

Amino acid alignment of 29 WhiB proteins. The alignment was made using ClustalW (Thompson et al., 1994, Nucl. Acids Res. 22: 4673–4680.). In the protein list on the right WhiB1 proteins are highlighted in red (M. tuberculosis WhiB1 is Rv3219). Protein accession numbers in Genbank are provided on page 1. Cysteine residues (yellow); for the WhiB1 proteins the predicted β-turn (green); and two conserved motifs (blue) in the C-terminal region are indicated. The numbers on the left are the positions of the first amino acid in that row in the primary structure of the indicated protein. A boldface M or L indicates possible alternative N-termini. (RTF)
