Characteristics of Fibroin H protein. a. Deduced amino acid sequences of N-terminal. Isolectric points are indicated ahead of each gene name. b. Amino acid composition (left) and hydrophilicity profile of repeats region. Repetitive region of A. pernyi as a reference and to generate pair-wise comparison on aligned sequences and only aligned regions were analyzed. Blue profiles showed the hydrophilicity profiles of aligned regions of A. pernyi and the red ones showed the hydrophilicity profiles of aligned regions in the other species. c. Amino acid composition of X (X refers to amino acids other than G) in repetitive GGGX quadruplexs, GGX triplets, GX diplets in the repeat region. (Abbreviations: Y.evo, Yponomeuta evonymellus; C.cep Corcyra cephalonica).
