Functional Characterization of Sesquiterpene Synthase from Polygonum minus
Figure 2
Multiple sequence alignment. The deduced amino acid sequence of PmSTS was aligned with homologues identified from the BLASTX analysis. Sequences highlighted in black indicate identical residues, while those in grey indicate similar residues. The conserved motifs RXR, DDXXD, and NSE/DTE are marked. PmSTS: sesquiterpene synthase [P. minus]; TsSTS: sesquiterpene synthase [Toona sinensis]; CsTPS1: terpene synthase 1 [Citrus sinensis]; CsVS: valencene synthase [Citrus sinensis]; VvGAS: germacrene A synthase [Vitis vinifera]; VvBCS: (E-) beta-caryophyllene synthase [Vitis vinifera]; EtACS: alpha-copaene synthase [Eleutherococcus trifoliatus].
