Representation of the conserved and semi-conserved segments on 3 D glycoprotein structure models of gp51. Homology models are shown as space-filled images of opposite sides arbitrarily named side A and side B. Each is based on alignment of residues 1–156 of mature gp51 with the analogous sequences of FeLV-B RBD (accession number 1LCS), or alignment of residues 1–298 with the amino acid sequence of Ebola Zaire GP1 (accession number 3CSY). The model of the gp51 RBD contain conserved segments A (blue), E (violet), D (yellow), and F (orange), and semi-conserved segments K (magenta), G (cyan), I (light green), and J (light blue). The model of the entire gp51 based on Ebola GP1 contains these segments plus segments included in residues 156–298, specifically conserved segments B (green), IV (red), and C (pink), and semi-conserved segment H (gray)
