HYR1-Mediated Detoxification of Reactive Oxygen Species Is Required for Full Virulence in the Rice Blast Fungus
Figure 1
MoHYR1 is a putative thioredoxin peroxidase protein and highly conserved among filamentous fungi.
(A) A Prosite search of the amino acid sequence revealed two glutathione peroxidase domains, the first of which is an active site, and the second, a signature (image was drawn with DomainDraw, [45]). (B) Alignment of the M. oryzae HYR1 with nine filamentous fungi. Shaded boxes below the alignment indicate degree of conservation. Open boxes indicate locations of domains in A. Arrows indicate the conserved cysteines. (C) Dendrogram of HYR1 from eleven filamentous fungi, one copy from yeast and one from human.
