A) Schematic illustration of predicted TolT products. For TolT-B, one ‘canonical’ and one ‘GPI-less’ variants are shown. The predicted signal peptide (SP) and GPI-anchoring sequences (GPI) are indicated in grey. Alanine (A)-rich domains and the arginine (R)/glutamic acid (E)-rich motif are denoted as yellow and red boxes, respectively. N-glycosylation sequons are indicated as pins. Conserved cysteine residues are shown, and those predicted to undergo palmitoylation are colored blue. B) Multiple alignments results of TolT-A (TcCLB.508767.20, TcCLB.506617.10, TcCLB.506617.20 and TcCLB.504157.130) and ‘canonical’ TolT-B (TcCLB.504277.20 and TcCLB.510433.20) protein sequences are depicted as WebLogo graphics. Residues from TolT-A or TolT-B sequences are indicated by red and green letters, respectively, whereas residues conserved between both groups are indicated in black letters.
