Figure 4

Protein alignment of the cattle ULBP family. Alignment gaps are represented by periods, and aligned ULBP sites sharing identity with cattle ULBP1 are represented by dashes. The signal peptide region (sp) is represented by dashes within brackets above the alignment. The α1 and α2 domains are designated by an underscore above the alignment. Universally conserved cysteine, proline, and tryptophan residues are annotated with Cs, Ps and Ws, respectively, beneath the alignment. Predicted N-glycosylation motifs are represented by underlined text in the alignment. Transmembrane domains are represented by black shaded background. Predicted GPI anchor motifs are represented by gray shaded background, and the associated downstream hydrophobic regions are indicated by italicized text with gray shaded background. Positively selected sites are indicated by asterisks above the alignment, and posterior probabilities associated with each positively selected site (see Table 2.5) are represented within the alignment by normal text (probability > 0.90), bold text (probability > 0.95), and italicized bold text (probability > 0.99).
