Multiple alignment of the partial amino acid sequence of BJ-PLA2-I with sequences of other phospholipases A2 from Bothrops venoms. Cysteine residues responsible for the formation of disulfide bonds are highlighted in blue and amino acid residues belonging to the catalytic site are in red. The toxins selected for alignment were: BJ-PLA2 from B. jararaca (gi: 3914258) [28], BaspPLA2-II from B. asper (gi: 292630844) [58], BthA-I-PLA2 from B. jararacussu (gi: 82211983) [18], BpirPLA2-I from B. pirajai (gi: 357580469) [32] and BmooPLA2 from B. moojeni (gi: 403399514) [33]. (*) indicates positions with fully conserved amino acid residues; (:) indicates conservation of amino acid groups with high score; (.) indicates conservation of amino acid groups with a lower score
