Alignment of selected <i>Calanus finmarchicus</i> Delta GST (Calfi-Delta-IV) and Mu GST (Calfi-Mu-III) proteins with their top arthropod protein BLAST hits.

<p>(A) Alignment of <i>D</i>. <i>pulex</i> Delta GST (Dappu-Delta) (<b>Accession No.</b><u><b>EFX81633</b></u>; 222 amino acids long) and Calfi-Delta-IV (220 amino acids long). (B) Alignment of the <i>T</i>. <i>japonicus</i> Mu GST (Tigja-Mu; <b>Accession No.</b><u><b>ACE81254</b></u>; 221 amino acids long) and Calfi-Mu-III (222 amino acids long). In each panel, ‘‘*” located beneath the alignment indicates residues that are identical in the two sequences, while ‘‘:” and ‘‘.” indicate conservatively substituted (similar) amino acids shared between the protein pairs. Amino acids highlighted in black are the ones predicted by SMART analysis to form the conserved amino (N)-terminal domain (GSTN), amino acids highlighted in red represent the conserved carboxyl (C)-terminal domain (GSTC).
