Figure 7.

Amino acid alignment of deer mouse (Pema), house mouse (Mus), rat (Rattus) and human (Homo) GM-CSF. Sequences were aligned as described in Figure 1. The deer mouse fragment represents 39% of the polypeptide. It includes partial A and C helices and the entire B helix and the β1-strand (underlined). One conserved cysteine is also present in deer mouse GM-CSF (*).
