Type II group β MTases. Protein alignment of the putative (orphan) MTases of Phi145, mtPhi145-1, the MTases encoded by prophage CV56 (YP_005868377) & KF147 (YP_0033553511) and the representative MTases MboIIa (P23192) and KpnI (P25238). The group β MTases conserved motifs previously determined [30, 31] are underlined and conserved residues are highlighted in red bold letters. To aid in the identification of conserved motifs some residues were removed from the alignment and indicated by the numbers in parenthesis: (11) = 11 amino acids removed from KFI47, CV56 and mtPhi145-1; (95) = 95 amino acids removed from KpnI and (18) = 18 amino acids as described previously and (18) = 18 amino acids removed from MboIIa as described previously [30, 31].
