Analysis of the PpSP32 protein family. (A) Multiple sequence analysis of PpSP32 like proteins from the salivary glands of Phlebotomus and Lutzomyia sandflies. (B) Multiple sequence alignment of Lutzomyia longipalpis salivary protein LJL04 and collagen adhesion proteins from B. thruingiensis and B. cereus. (C) Multiple sequence alignment of Phlebotomus perniciosus PpeSP05 and type VII collagen proteins from Canis familiairis, Mus musculus, Rattus norvegicus, Chinese hamster, and Bos Taurus. Sequences were aligned using ClustalX and manually refined using BioEdit sequence-editing software.
