  1. Summary of results obtained for HIS4 genes. Right-most columns indicate the presence of a given domain in the corresponding protein; column marked with an asterisk corresponds to the N – terminal region found in Fungi (N), of unknown function, and Plants (S), a signal peptide for chloroplast localization.
