Amino acid residue alignment of the reverse transcriptase (top) and integrase (bottom) domains of SCHMIDT from Beta vulgaris, with its active site boxed in, along with corresponding sections of other reverse transcriptase proteins from different plants. Amino acids matching the consensus sequence are shaded. Numbers indicate cumulative amino acid positions; Arabidopsis thaliana (BAB10790), Asparagus officinalis (ABD63142), Beta vulgaris (ABM55240), Cicer arietinum (CAC44142), Glycine max (AAO23078), Hordeum vulgare (AAK94517), Medicago truncatula (ABO81153), Oryza sativa japonica (ABA92233), Primula vulgaris (ABD78322), Solanum demissum (AAW28577), Sorghum bicolor (AAD22153), Vitis vinifera (CAN79321), Zea mays (AAM94350), Zea mays (AAL59229).
