Figure 3. Multiple sequence alignment of Zytrisin-1 and other known defensins.
AITDs: AcDEF (P80154); SmDEF (KFM61041), micasin (AEM44801), CpDEF (ACJ04429), OmDef (BAB41027); CITDs: sapecin (AAA29984); DmDef (AAO72492). Conserved cysteines are shadowed in yellow and identical residues to Zytrisin-1 in cyan. Secondary structure elements and disulfide bridges are extracted from the structural coordinates of Micasin (PDB ID: 2LR5) and Sapecin (PDB ID: 1L4V). Two loops are boxed in dotted lines. The functionally important basic residues in the c-loop are coloured in blue.
