Characteristics of SGIV VP19. (A) Amino acid alignment of SGIV VP19 and other orthologues in family Iridoviridae. The black shaded regions indicate completely conserved residues, whilst the grey shaded regions are partially conserved residues with greater than 80% identity. The DUF domain was indicated with a line above the alignment. Conserved cysteines were highlighted with asterisks. The predicted transmembrane (TM) domain and the typical proline-rich motif were boxed with rectangle. (B) Phylogenetic position of VP19 in family Iridoviridae. Phylogenetic tree was constructed using neighbor-joining (NJ) method. Branch lengths are proportional to the evolutionary distance between the taxa.
