Figure 1

Sequence alignment of two Drosophila eIF4E isoforms produced by alternative splicing from the eIF4E gene (eIF4EI and eIF4EII; Lavoie et al. 1996), Mus musculus eIF4E (mouse4E), and five novel Drosophila genes that encode related proteins. Residues identical in all eight proteins are printed white with black background, other well-conserved residues are printed with shaded background. Each residue essential for cap binding is marked with a lower case c, each residue essential for binding to eIF4G or 4EBP is marked with an asterisk, and each residue involved in phosphorylation is marked with a lower case p. The alignment was produced using CLUSTALW (Thompson et al. 1994).

Figure 2

Phenogram of 117 Drosophila RRM proteins. The alignment was produced using CLUSTALW (Thompson et al. 1994) and the tree was generated using the protdist, neighbor, and drawgram programs in the PHYLIP package (Felsenstein 1989).
