Fig. 3. Sequence alignments of anthelmintic and canonical ponericins.
Nc1a, Nc2a, Nc3a and Nc3b, and Nal b show homology to the three described subfamilies of ponericins: W, L, and G. Ponericins identified in this study are shown in bold. Identity (%ID) and similarity (%Sim) are shown compared to canonical ponericins at the top of the alignment for each subfamily. Identical residues are highlighted in yellow, positively-charged residues (K and R) are coloured blue, and conservative substitutions are shown in red. Additional species included in the alignments are: Apis flora, A. flora; Dinoponera quadriceps, D. quadriceps; Ectatomma brumneum, E. brumneum; Phasmahyla jandaia, P. jandaia; Antheraea pernyi, A. pernyi.
