Conserved sequence motifs and domains in plant WAVE proteins. The sequence logos illustrate the sequence conservation within the multiple sequence alignments of three sequence motifs (WAM1, WAM2, and WAM3) and a domain (WAM4) that are specific to plant WAVE proteins. Plant WAVE proteins group into three different classes. WAM1 is present in almost all plant WAVE homologs, WAM2 has been introduced into plant WAVEs after the separation of the moss species, and WAM3 and WAM4 are unique to class-1 plant WAVEs.
