Comparisons of Allergenic and Metazoan Parasite Proteins: Allergy the Price of Immunity
Fig 5
A. Sequence alignment of the epitopic region from Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) allergenic parvalbumin-like 1 protein (UniProt accession: B5DH17) and predicted epitopic-like region from worm Schistosoma japonicum (UniProt accession: Q5C262). B. Superposition of the 3D structural model of salmon parvalbumin-like 1 protein (colored in green) and EF hand domain of the Schistosoma japonicum protein (in cyan). Epitope (allergen) and predicted epitopic-like regions (parasite protein) are depicted in the box.
