(A) Amino acid comparison of mouse Smn and human SMN. Vertical lines indicate amino acid identity; dots represent gaps that have been introduced to maximize identity. A few possible post-translational modification sites that are conserved between the two species are shown: (Broken underline) Asn glycosylation; (single underline) myristalation; (double underline) cAMP phosphorylation; (▵) PKC phosphorylation; and (*) NLS sequence. (B) Comparison of percent nucleotide and amino acid identity of murine and human SMN.
