Sequence alignment of frataxin homologues from different organisms. The amino acid sequence of Homo sapiens (accession no. Q16595), Mus musculus (accession no. O35943), Bos taurus (accession number NP_001074196.1), Drosophila melanogaster (accession no. Q9w385), Caenorhabditis elegans (accession no. Q9TY03), Saccharomyces cerevisiae (accession no. Q07540), Arabidopsis thaliana (accession no. NP_192233.2), Triticum aestivum (accession no. CN010373), Oryza sativa, (accession no. BE040598), and Zea mays (accession no. CA830057) is shown. Alignment was performed by using the CLUSTALW2 method (Protein Weight Matrix Blosum, clustering NJ) (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/Tools/msa/clustalw2/). Identical residues (*) are marked in black, and conserved substitutions (:) are shaded in gray.
