Similarity of predicted amino acid sequence of Li-P4 nuclease with different promastigote-specific P1/S1 nuclease of various Leishmania species.

Leishmania species	Identity %*	Positivity %**
P4 nuclease (Leishmania infantum)	100	100
P1/S1 secretary nuclease (Leishmania donovani)	89	92
p1/s1 nuclease (Leishmania major)	81	89
single strand-specific nuclease (Leishmania pifanoi)	77	85
P4 nuclease (Leishmania amazonensis)	75	85

*Identity is referred to the extent to which two sequences are invariant.

**Positivity is referred to the extent to which two sequences possess amino acids with the same physicochemical properties.
