Fig. 4From: Cloning, structural modelling and characterization of VesT2s, a wasp venom hyaluronidase (HAase) from Vespa tropica Sequence alignment of the deduced amino acid sequence of Vespa tropica HAase with other allergen venom HAases. VesT2s was aligned with the known HAases; VesV2a and VesV2b (Vespula vulgaris; active and inactive forms), VesG2a and VesG2b (Vespula germanica; active and inactive forms), Vespa magnifica (VesMa2), DolM2 (Dolichovespula maculata), PolA2 (Polistes annularis), PolP2 (Polybia paulista) and Api_M2 (Apis mellifera). The shaded yellow alignment corresponds to conserved residues in HAase. The N-terminus was shown in the underlined amino acid sequence obtained by Edman sequencing. The catalytic residues (D and E letters) are indicated with the red stars (✩). The conserved cysteine positions among the HAase are indicated with blue triangles (△)Back to article page
