Comparison between lepidopteran cadherin-like proteins and the Aedes aegypti cadherin studied here. Cadherin-like proteins are constituted of different domains: SD, subdomain; MPED, membrane-proximal extracellular domain; TM, transmembrane domain; CYTO, cytoplasmic domain. Only features present in the mature form of the protein are outlined here. Known and putative Cry binding sites characterized in lepidopterans are indicated by parentheses. B. mori, Bombyx mori; H. armigera, Helicoverpa armigera; H. virescens, Heliothis virescens; M. sexta, Manduca sexta; Ae. aegypti, Aedes aegypti. Adapted from Figure 10 in [27].
