a

For all the organisms, motifs 1 and 2, 2 and 3, and 3 and 4 are separated by 9, 18, and 6 amino acids, respectively. 

b

-, one amino acid and —, two amino acids. Numbers in parentheses indicate the number of amino acids matching the four consensus residues. 

c

Deviation from the norm, R (Arg) instead of G (Gly). 

d

Accession numbers are the same as in Table 6
