Figure 1. Sequence alignment of the toxins MT7, MT1, MT3 and ρ-Da1a compared to the various chimeras.

Figure 1

The grafted residues of MT1 loop 1 are shown in green with conserved residues in a lighter shade generating the chimera of MT7-1/1. For MT7-1/2, MT7-1/2tip and MT7-1/2top the grafted residues of MT1 loop 2 are shown in cyan (top) and blue (tip) and the conserved residues in a lighter shade. For MT7-1/3, MT7-1/1+3 and MT7-1/2tip+3 the grafted residues of MT1 loop 3 are shown in yellow with the conserved residues in a lighter shade. The two extra mutations on the C-terminal section of MT7-1/1+3 that correspond to residues from MT1 are shown in magenta. Below the space-filling representation on the MT7 structure show the positioning of the grafted loops from MT1.
