The aligned regions were as follows: Ig-like, nucleotides (nt) 327 to 1280; T, nt 1281 to 1586; TR, nt 1587 to 2264; stalk, nt 2265 to 4586 (based on the ALS5 nucleotide sequence).

The acquisition numbers were as follows: ALS5, gi_2522218; ALS1, gi_704426; ALS3, gi_29373982.

Averages were as follows: Ig-like, 0.2822; T, 0.0530; TR, 0.0999; stalk, 0.6412.
