Multiple alignments of a PgsB and b PgsC proteins. Sequence alignments were performed using the GENETYX program. Identical residues are shown by periods (.) and sites with 100% homology are marked with asterisks (*) on the bottom of the line. Predicted consensus sequences are shaded in Gray tones. Secondary structure prediction was performed using the SOSUI program. Predicted transmembrane helix structures are shown as black lines on the tops of lines. Symbols: closed circles, ATP-binding motif; opened star, the initiation codon of in-phase overlapping pgsB genes of B. subtilis; closed star, the initiation codon of in-phase overlapping capB genes of B. anthracis
