Previously to the study of the codifying nucleotide glmS sequences, Glms protein was analyzed to check the reported high level of conservation of the C-terminal part of this protein (Milewski, 2002). Thus, a multialignment, a circular and squared tree and several logos of all the downloaded Glms sequences were obtained (figure 5). It is mentionable the high level of conservation found in the last 15 amino acids of this protein in all organisms which contrast with the lack of any conservation in the previous amino acidic sequence (this difference is perfectly shown in all sequence logos). It is also interesting that the consensus sequence of this C-terminal part of Glms protein match perfectly with the amino acidic sequence resulting when translating the nucleotide consensus obtained in figure 3.

Figure 7. A. Bacteria and Archaea obtained logo for the last 16 amino acids of the C-terminal region of Glms. B. Fungi obtained logo for the last part of Glms.
