The multiple sequence alignments between the novel peptide and several peptides in the temporin family with the same sequence length by Clustal Omega. An * (asterisk) indicates that the residue in this position in these sequences is fully conserved. A : (colon) indicates conservation between amino acids with strongly similar properties. A . (period) marks conservation between residues of weakly similar properties. The numbers at the ends of the sequences are the numbers of the amino acids.
