FIG. 4.
The identification of PIG-L in plasmodia is based on an expressed sequence tag sequence (BF295271) from P. berghei (Pb) and a genomic fragment from P. yoelii (Py). Their sequences are aligned to the PIG-L proteins of H. sapiens (Hs) and S. cerevisiae (Sc), with accession numbers BAA74775 (Hs) and BAA74776 (Sc). The numbers indicate the length of a poorly aligned region in the middle which is not shown. CS, consensus sequence. Symbols and figure preparation are as described in the legend to Fig. 3.
