SEARCH Articles Figures Tables Alignment of amino acid sequences of bacterial glycogen synthases and plant starch synthases in the region of the conserved putative loop. Residues with gray background are 100 conserved. The number before the source indicates the number of amino acids of the protein, while the number before the sequence is the first aligned amino acid of each protein. The secondary structure prediction of the E. coli sequence is on top of the alignment [Publishers Imprint]
