Figure Lengend Snippet: Structural characteristics of ClPRX protein. ( A ) Schematic diagram of the primary structure of the class III peroxidase. The green boxes at the front and back signify the N-terminal signal peptide (SP) and c-terminal extension domain (CT). The middle three boxes represent the highly conserved domain: box I is the distal-heme-binding site domain; box Ⅱ is the unknown functional domain; box Ⅲ is the proximal-heme-binding site domain. The gray area with obvious variation was assumed to be a variable domain responsible for the specific catalytic function of peroxidase. The highly conserved distal histidine (Hd) and proximal histidine (HP) are heme-binding sites represented by green bars. Eight cysteines (C1–C8) are key amino acids that form disulfide bonds to form the secondary structure of peroxidase, which are represented by yellow solid circles. The four conserved disulfide bonds formed are shown as black lines in plane. ( B ) represents the four conserved domains and site location information of the third type of peroxidase, which are marked on the amino acid sequence with four different colors, and the 3D model of the structure of the four domains is displayed, the yellow part being the functional site. ( C ) is the comparison results of 7 groups of ClPRX protein sequences.
