Residue conservation of key positions in SWEET protein family

Residue conservation in prokaryotes


1 Residue numbers correspond to the structure of semiSWEET from Leptospira biflexa (PDB ID: 4QNC). For each residue, we have also provided the generic structure-based numbering scheme which conveys its relative position within a transmembrane helix with respect to the most conserved residue in that segment.
2 For details of residues that form extracellular and intracellular gates, selectivity filter and substrate-binding site, see references.
3 Only those residues which show conservation at least 15% are mentioned in the table.
4 Small and weakly polar residues: Ala, Gly, Ser, Thr and Cys; Hydrophobic: Leu, Ile, Val and Met.

Residue conservation in plants and metazoans


1 Residue numbers correspond to the structure of SWEET from Oryza sativa (PDB ID: 5CTG). For each residue, we have also provided the generic structure-based numbering scheme which conveys its relative position within a transmembrane helix with respect to the most conserved residue in that segment.
2 For details of residues that form extracellular and intracellular gates, selectivity filter and substrate-binding site see references.
3 Only those residues which show conservation at least 15% are mentioned in the table.
4 Small and weakly polar residues: Ala, Gly, Ser, Thr and Cys; Hydrophobic: Leu, Ile, Val and Met.

Group conservation of small and weakly polar residues


1 Residue numbers correspond to the semiSWEET structure from Leptospira biflexa (PDB ID: 4QNC) for prokaryotes and structure of SWEET from Oryza sativa (PDB ID: 5CTG) for eukaryotes.
2 For each residue, the generic structure-based numbering scheme is provided in brackets.
3 Only those residues which show conservation at least 15% are mentioned in the table.
