Molecular Diversity between Salivary Proteins from New World and Old World Sand Flies with Emphasis on Bichromomyia olmeca, the Sand Fly Vector of Leishmania mexicana in Mesoamerica

Fig 5

Multiple sequence alignment of the salivary sand fly Toxin-like protein family.

Multiple sequence alignment of the Toxin-like protein from B. olmeca (LolToxA-K) with homologs from N. intermedia (Linb-40, 41, 43, 52, 53, 60 and 88), and from other spiders Grammostola rosea, Haplopelma hainanum, Haplopelma schmidti, Chilobrachys guangxiensis, Heteroscodra maculate and Psalmopoeus cambridgei. Brackets indicate the pro-peptide. And Toxin conserved motif is represented by half a rectangle. Black background shading represents identical amino acids. Grey background shading represents similar amino acids.
