Figure 1

Multiple amino acids sequence alignments of dUTPase proteins in different non-primate lentiviruses. The sequence information was taken from The National Center for Biotechnology Information (EIAV dUTPase GI: 157830894; FIV dUTPase GI: 1942421; Visna Virus dUTPase GI:9626549; BIV dUTPase GI: 9626219; CAEV dUTPase GI: 266706151; Jembrana (JDV) dUTPase GI:733067). The figure was prepared using the T-COFFEE alignment tool (Version_9.03.r1318) [16, 17]. The locations of five conserved dUTPase motifs are underlined and numbered. A. Sequence alignments of non-primate lentiviruses dUTPase-encoding genes. B. BIV dUTPase versus EIAV dUTPase. The conserved mutated BIV dUTPase residues (D48E/N57S) and the Δ36 deletion mutation are marked above the sequences.
