Fig 5. Semaphorin proteins predicted from the G. bimaculatus transcriptome share most of the functional domains found in Drosophila Sema proteins.

Fig 5

A) The type, number, and order of protein domains was assessed using Drosophila Sema1a, isoform G (AGB92801) and the putative G. bimaculatus Sema1a (TRINITY_DN169697_c2_g1_i3) as queries in a conserved domain search. Both proteins possessed a sema domain (red rectangle) and a plexin repeat (blue rectangle). Diagonal lines indicate sequence missing from the N- and C-terminal ends of the predicted G. bimaculatus protein. B) The type, number, and order of protein domains was assessed using Drosophila Sema2a, isoform E (AAS64837) and the putative G. bimaculatus Sema2a (TRINITY_DN173773_c2_g2_i6) as queries in a conserved domain search. Both proteins possessed a sema domain (red rectangle) and an Ig domain (purple). Drosophila Sema2a, isoform E possessed a plexin repeat (blue rectangle) which was missing in G. bimaculatus. C) The type, number, and order of protein domains was assessed using Drosophila Sema5C, isoform B (ACZ94701) and the putative G. bimaculatus Sema5 (TRINITY_DN165105_c1_g2_i8) as queries in a conserved domain search. Both proteins possessed a sema domain (red rectangle) and a plexin repeat (blue rectangle). Drosophila Sema5c isoform B had six thrombospondin type 1 domains while the predicted Sema5 in G. bimaculatus had just four (light blue ovals).
