From: The Anaplasma ovis genome reveals a high proportion of pseudogenes
Omp13 alignment showing potential start sites. The first 80 codons of the A. ovis Omp13 sequence are shown on the top line (Omp13 AOV_04835), and the corresponding A. marginale sequence (St. Maries strain) in the middle and the A. centrale (Israel strain) sequence on the bottom line. The asterisk shows the position of the stop codon in the A. ovis sequence. The arrows show potential start sites downstream from the stop codon. In the A. centrale sequence, the arrow shows the annotated start codon (GTG), however the sequence upstream from this start is open and contains an in frame methionine start codon. The amino-terminal sequence is not conserved. The methionine at the right most arrow is conserved in all three species, and could be the appropriate start codon for this protein
