ClustalW analysis of AP2 DNA-binding domains. AP2domain of AsCBF1, AsCBF2, AsCBF3 and AsCBF4 were aligned to AP2 domains from CBF related proteins from other plants as indicated in the text to the left. Arabidopsis thaliana AtCBF1, AtCBF2, AtCBF3; Horedeum vulgare HvCBF1, HvCBF2, HvCBF3; Triticum aestivum TaDREB; Oryza sativa OsDREB1A, OsDREB1B; Secale cereale ScCBF (AC-numbers of the sequences are given in table 6). The amino acid residues are coloured based on the functionality, and the colouring schema is as follows: Acidic residues (DE) are red, basic residues (RHK) are blue, hydrophobic residues (AILMFPV) are white and hydrophilic residues (NCQGSTY) are orange.
