All the NlpC/P60 homologs recovered in the above searches were collated and clustered at various thresholds of BLAST-bit-score to high-scoring pairs (HSP)-length ratios using the BLASTCLUST program.
Distribution of BLAST database matches and homologs in C. elegans
The eukaryotic RDRP is part of a large ensemble of functionally linked proteins, which include the Dicer helicase-nuclease, PIWI family proteins, the Hen-2/Corymbosa-like RNA methylase, AlkB-related RNA demethylases, and Lin28-like RNA-binding proteins [ 1 45 46 ] . Since no closely related homologs of any of these proteins are encoded in the genomes of the phages that encode YRH proteins, the latter are unlikely to function in a biological context similar to that of the eukaryotic RDRPs.
Thus, this family of proteins appears to be conserved among higher plants, but we have not found convincing homologs from yeast or animals by sequence similarity searches.
Ppt1p contains two short stretches of amino acids, a 15-residue sequence between the linker helix and the catalytic domain (residues 174-188), and a ten-residue sequence just preceding the extreme C terminus (residues 474-484), that are not found in other PP5 homologs reported thus far ( [ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ] , and accession numbers CAB60937, CAA17690 and AAD21727).
