Figure 3

Alignment of BH3 domains of HBSPs. Alignment of the BH3 domains revealed the three genotypes share the same conserved amino acid 21–30. BH3 domain is characterized by consensus at position 21, 25, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31 and 32 which are required for interaction. HBSPs differed mainly at position 31 and 32. Genotype B has both of them conserved while A and C has one each (blue color).
