FIG. 3.

An alignment of amino acid sequences for various herpesvirus DNA polymerases is shown, generated using ClustalW (run using the BioEdit software [21]). For each sequence, the name of the virus, database accession number, and residue number of the first amino acid are shown (the residue number in italics refers to a partial polymerase sequence). The conserved aspartate residue, corresponding to D/N₇₅₂ of the EHV-1 polymerase, is highlighted by gray shading.
