Fig 2. Comparison of an Asp-rich shell matrix protein from Amphibalanus amphitrite with Asprich (Atrina rigida; AAU04808.1) and Aspein (Pinctada fucata; AB094512).

Fig 2

The Asp-rich shell matrix protein from A. amphitrite mainly contained Asp punctuated with Glu or Gly, which are labeled in bold with a single underline. Asprich includes three poly(Asp) motifs (presented in block with a single underline) and two DEAD motifs (presented in bold with a double underline). Aspein consists of mostly poly(Asp) blocks punctuated with Ser-Gly dipeptides (presented in bold with a single underline).
