From: Identification of novel subgroup A variants with enhanced receptor binding and replicative capacity in primary isolates of anaemogenic strains of feline leukaemia virus

Figure 1

Sequence alignment of receptor binding domains from the env s of anaemogenic strains of FeLV. FEA cells were infected with primary isolates of FeLV from cats with anaemia. Env genes were amplified from total cellular DNA, and the nucleic acid sequences of multiple clones were determined. Sequences in blue were putatively assigned to subgroup A while sequences in red were assigned to subgroup C. Dots indicate conservation with the A (Glasgow-1) sequence. Dashes are included to maintain alignment conservation in the presence of deletion or insertions. Residues 83 and 91 in the N terminal region are highlighted.
