FIG 1.

Summary of amino acid sequence alignments between NiV and CedV receptor binding glycoproteins. (A) % aa identity between NiV, HeV, and CedV glycoproteins derived using BLAST. (B) Schematic representation of wild-type CedV G and NiV G/HeV G drawn to relative scale. The conserved stalk C-terminal residues have 71% identity (12/17) and are indicated above with the three distinct cysteines underlined and bolded. CT, cytoplasmic tail; TM, transmembrane domain; Stalk, stalk domain; Head, receptor-binding head domain.
