Fig. 2.

Sequence identity patterns in sea bass NITR V and I domains. ClustalW alignment of predicted translation product of sea bass V and I domains. Identical residues are highlighted in black; similar residues are highlighted in grey. The location of sequence regions corresponding to CDR1, CDR2 and CDR3 as well as J-related domains are indicated. Highly conserved Ig domain residues are designated in one-letter code; numbers correspond to International Immunogenetics Database (IMGT) designation (Lefranc et al. 2003). Conserved cysteines are indicated (asterisk) below the alignment
