Fig. 3From: Characterisation of protein families in spider digestive fluids and their role in extra-oral digestionAlignment of protein sequences of all astacin-like metalloproteases found in the genome of Stegodyphus mimosarum. Highlighted in red are four conserved cysteins, and in grey a conserved HEXXHXXGXXHE motif. Both the conserved cysteins and the HEXXHXXGXXHE motif are characteristic for astacin-like metalloproteases (Gomis-Ruth et al. [56])Back to article page
