SL1, SL2, and the LRI sequence is conserved among FIV strains that infect other feline species. (A) Mfold structural prediction of the 5′ end of the Cougar lentivirus genome (accession number EF455603). (B) Mfold structural prediction of the 5′ end of the Cougar lentivirus genome with LRI paired. (C) Mfold structural prediction of the 5′ end of the FIVPleo genome. (D) Mfold structural prediction of the 5′ end of the FIVOma genome. (E) Sequence alignment of the 5′ end of FIV strains that infect cougars, showing conservation of LRI and palindromic regions. (F) Sequence alignment of the 5′ end of FIV strains that infect Pallas' cats (AY713445 and U56928) and lions (EU117991 and EU117992), showing conservation of LRI and palindromic regions.
