Figure 2. HEAT Repeats in CRM1(A) Sequence alignment between the middle regions of CRM1 and Trn1. Identically and highly conserved residues are in inverse font and highlighted in gray, respectively. The chymotrypsin cleavage site marks the beginning of the C-terminal 70 kDa fragment. Colored bars indicate helices observed from crystal structures; predicted helices are in gray. The LMB site and residues implicated in RanBP3 binding are indicated. Sequence numbering is that of human Trn1 (top) and human CRM1 (bottom).(B) HEAT-repeat maps. CRM1 is predicted to contain the same number of repeats as Trn1 and Impβ. The difference in sequence length is due to CRM1 having larger individual repeats (primarily repeats 1, 3, 7, 13, 15, and 19) and a long tail region. The C-terminal region of Trn1 sometimes designated repeat 20 is labeled “C.” The hashed bar shows where the mapping is uncertain.
