Figure 3
Alignment of deduced amino acid sequences of F genes of CDV strains. Only amino acids differ from the Onderstepoort sequence are shown. Potential N-linked glycosylation sites (N-X-S/T) are boxed. Cysteine residues (*), cleave sites (â–¼), Hydrophobic regions are underlined. Domains in the F gene are Fusion peptide (FP), heptad repeats (HRA and HRB), helical bundles (HB), trans-membrane (TM), cytoplasmic tail (CT). Numbering starts at the first methionine residue of the Onderstepoort strain. The predicted amino acid sequences of the following pairs were identical; 66L/009L, M25CR/011C, 50Con/50Cbl and 82Con/83mLN.
