Figure 7

Comparison of the conserved core regions of selected Class II eIF4E-family members. A. An alignment of amino acid sequences representing the conserved core regions of the Class II eIF4E-family members from the taxonomic species indicated and of H. sapiens eIF4E-1. Amino acid residues within the alignment are highlighted as described in the legend to Figure 3A with the exception that residues shaded in grey indicate identical amino acids in greater than 84% of the sequences shown. Numbers to the right of the alignment represent distances of amino acids with respect to the N-terminal Met residue (black) or, for eIF4E-family members for which the N-terminal Met could not be predicted, from the first residue shown (red). B. A phylogram constructed by neighbor-joining derived from an alignment of nucleotide sequences representing the conserved core regions of the eIF4E-family members indicated. Bootstrap values greater than 70% derived from 50,000 tests are shown to indicate supported nodes. For A and B: names of eIF4E-family members in red indicate that only a portion of the conserved core region could be predicted.
