Type II group α MTases. Protein alignment of the putative phage (orphan) MTases located in the replication region: mtPhi145-2, mtPhi93-2, mtPhi15-1 and T4 phage DAM MTase (NP_049647). The group α MTases conserved motifs previously determined [12, 30] 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: (15) = 15 amino acids removed from mtPhi145-2, mtPhi93-2, and mtPhi15-1; (55/15) = 55 amino acids removed mtPhi145-2, mtPhi93-2 as well as 15 amino acids from mtPhi15-1.
