(A) Phylogenetic analysis of the lepidopteran moricin family. Computer-aimed phylogenetic analysis was done by the neighbor-joining method for amino acid sequences among moricin described above. A phylogenetic tree was constructed using Clustal X. Genbank accession numbers of the amino acid sequences used for the comparison are BAC79440 (S. litura moricin), AAT3887 (S. exigua moricin), BAB13508 (B. mori moricin), ADR51149 (H. armigera moricin), EHJ70108 (D. plexippus moricin), BAA77338 (B. mori moricin 2), AAW21269 (H. puera moricin II), AAO74637 (M. sexta moricin), AEM66445 (B. mori moricin B3), AEM66435 (B. mandarina moricin B3), ABQ42579 (G. mellonella moricin-like peptide C5), EHJ73174 (D. plexippus moricin-like peptide C4), ABQ42574 (G. mellonella moricin-like peptide B), ABQ42580 (G. mellonella moricin-like peptide D), ABQ42575 (G. mellonella moricin-like peptide C1), and ABQ42573 (G. mellonella moricin-like peptide A). Px010113, Px010114, and Px010115 come from P. xylostella genome. (B) Comparison of the predicted amino acid sequences of moricins from P. xylostella. The alignment of Px-Mor, Px010115, Px010114, and Px010113 was conducted using the DNAMAN. Px010115, Px010114, and Px010113 is the amino acid sequence of moricin from P. xylostella genome. The same amino acid is remarked with blue box. Before the arrows is the putative signal sequence of 23 amino acid residues and after the arrows is the mature peptide.
