Figure 6.

Multiple sequence alignment of a portion of the ebolavirus glycoprotein (GP) from four species of ebolavirus genomes, showing identities between the Taï Forest genome (gi|208436395) and three others (numbered using the Zaire ebolavirus genome of gi|208436395). Identities between Taï Forest and others are shaded in gray. At each position of the alignment, the genome with the highest identity to Taï Forest GP is shown above the alignment by color and the first letter of the genome type: Z = Zaire, gi|667853009 (green), S = Sudan, gi|165940954 (cyan), and R = Reston, gi|253317719 (yellow). The highest similarity at each position was determined by the largest number of identities in a five-residue window centered at each location, with dashes indicating a tie or an undetermined result. Dashes between blocks of the same letter are colored by the surrounding color.
