Structure-based sequence alignments of: sperm whale Mb, Vitreoscilla stercoraria hemoglobin (Hb), taken as reference 3-on-3-fold globins, vs. Chlamydomonas eugametos group I truncated Hb (trHb), Paramecium caudatum group I trHb, Mycobacterium tuberculosis group I trHbN, and M. tuberculosis group II trHbO, Mycobacterium leprae group II trHbO, Mycobacterium avium group II trHbO. Helical regions in sperm whale myoglobin (Mb) and in trHbO are shown (Upper) and identified by the pertaining capital letters. The f extra helix present in trHbO is identified in purple. Glycine-based structural motifs, common to the trHb fold, are highlighted by green bars. Some of the key topological positions (B9, B10, CD1, E7, E11, F8, and G8) are marked by red bars.
