Distinct subtypes of eukaryotic γCAs. A truncated alignment of γCA proteins demonstrates that the N-terminal regions of certain isoforms (termed Class I) are highly conserved throughout Eucarya (see text). Species abbreviations: CA1-3, Arabidopsis; Cpa, Cyanophora paradoxa; AcCa, Acanthamoeba castellanii; Tth, Tetrahymena thermophila; Ehu, Emiliania huxleyi; Pin, Phytophthora infestans; Gth, Guillardia theta. Shading of columns reflects amino acid similarity of ≥ 40%.
