Gene structure, the Rep protein motif and DNA helicase domain of putative autonomous ZmhelA and ZmhelB. A. A schematic diagram of putative autonomous ZmhelA and ZmhelB showing the Rep, helicases and RPA domain. B and C. Multiple sequence alignments of the Rep motif and DNA helicase domain. Sequences from other species were aligned with ZmhelA1, ZmhelB1 and ZmhelB2. Ce, C. elegans; Ag, Anopheles gambiae; Os, Oryza sativa; At, A. thaliana; It, Ipomoea tricolor; Dr, Danio rerio; Cg, Chaetomium globosum; Sp, Strongylocentrotus purpuratus; SVTS, Spiroplasma plectrovirus (AAF18311); Rep_SC, Streptomyces cyaneus plasmid (BAA34784); Rep_BB, Bacillus borstelensis plasmid (BAA07788); Rep_AA, Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans plasmid (AAC37125); Pf3, Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteriophage (AAA88392); Baculovirus (NP047686); Yeast (P07271); CHilo (AAD48149); TRAA_RHISN (P55418); TRWC (S43878); EXOV_EC (P04993); HEL_T4 (P32270) [10].
