Fig. 2

Molecular structure of subfamily 7b (CuMTs). Multiple alignments were made using the T-Coffee program, followed by visual inspection and manual adjustment. The new CuMT sequences reported in this paper are indicated with colored (orange) names. Yellow shaded regions indicate conserved Cys (C) residues. Blue and grey shaded regions indicate Lys (K) or Gln (Q) residues, respectively. His (H) residues are indicated by red shading. See the text for further explanation
