Vitellogenins Are New High Molecular Weight Components and Allergens (Api m 12 and Ves v 6) of Apis mellifera and Vespula vulgaris Venom
Figure 2
Alignment of Api m 12 and Ves v 6.
Alignment of A. mellifera vitellogenin Api m 12 (Genbank accession NP_001011578) and V. vulgaris vitellogenin Ves v 6 (Genbank accession AER70365) reveals an identity of 40% on protein level. Asterisks, colons, and periods indicate fully conserved, strongly similar, and weakly similar residues, respectively. Peptides identified by mass spectrometry are underlined, signal sequences are italicized, and putative N-glycosylation sites are highlighted in grey.
