Figure 3. Specialized proteins in the secretome of S. parasitica.
(A) Distributions of major classes of specialized secreted proteins compared between animal and plant pathogenic oomycetes. P. infestans represents Phytophthora species. (B) S. parasitica secreted proteins that carry various lectin domain fusions are schematically drawn. Domains or domain architectures unique to S. parasitica are marked with an asterisk. Proteins containing single domains are also listed. (C) Phylogenetic relationship of lectins. The S. parasitica disintegrin gene (SPRG_01285 groups with bacterial homologs; gal_lectin gene (SPRG_05731)) groups with animal species. All other paralogous S. parasitica disintegrin and gal_lectin genes group closely with these two representatives, respectively, and are not shown.
