Alignment of preprodefensin sequences. Deduced amino acid sequences for Anopheles gambiae AgDef1, AgDef2, AgDef3 and AgDef4 are aligned with Drosophila melanogaster DmDef (Dimarcq et al., 1994) and Aedes aegypti AaDefA and AaDefC (Chalk et al., 1995; Lowenberger et al., 1995; Cho et al., 1996) using Clustal with the PAM250 residue weight table. The top panel shows PrePro sequences with the putative signal peptide underlined. The lower panel aligns mature peptide sequences with the conserved cysteine residues boxed.
