From: An insight into the sialotranscriptome of the brown dog tick, Rhipicephalus sanguineus
The salivary defensins of Rhipicephalus sanguineus were aligned using ClustalW. The symbols at the top represent identity (*), conserved (:) and weakly conserved (.) amino acids. The bar below the alignment indicates the region where the Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) triplet flanked by cysteines is found on RS-609.
