Amino acid sequence alignments of representative sequences from the ovine KAP families and orthologous sequences from other species. (a) KAP1-n; (b) KAP2-n; (c) KAP3-n; (d) KAP4-n; (e) KAP5-n; (f) KAP6-n; (g) KAP7-1; (h) KAP8-n; (i) KAP11-1; (j) KAP13-3; and (k) KAP24-1. The dashes represent amino acids identical to the top sequence and the dots act as spacers to improve alignments. The QTSCCQPXXX decapeptide repeat sequence found in KAP1-n and the CCVPX pentameric repeat sequence found in KAP2-n are shown in boxes. The central region consisting of contcatenates of nonocysteine- and dicysteine-containing pentameric repeats found in KAP4-n is shaded. In KAP5-n, the glycine-rich decapeptide repeat sequence is boxed, whereas the cycteine/serine-rich decapeptide repeat sequence is both boxed and shaded. All the amino acid sequences are predicated from DNA sequences, except for those indicated by * which were derived directly from protein sequencing. # indicates a partial sequence. The sheep, goat, cattle and human sequences are indicated with a prefix of “s”, “g”, “c” and “h”, respectively. Accession numbers or references for the ovine sequences are shown in Table 1, and those from other species are: AB096962 (hKAP7-1); AY510121 (gKAP7-1); AP001709 (hKAP8-1); AY510123 (gKAP8-2); NM_001080740 (cKAP11-1); NW_001838706 (hKAP11-1); ENSBTAG00000040032 (cKAP13-3); NM_181622.1 (hKAP13-3); XM_002684598.1 (cKAP24-1) and NM_001085455 (hKAP24-1).
