From: An insight into the sialotranscriptome of the brown dog tick, Rhipicephalus sanguineus
The salivary basic tail and 18.3 kDa proteins of Rhipicephalus sanguineus. A) Clustal alignment with other tick proteins. The asterisk (*) indicates identical amino acids. B) Phylogram of the alignment. The branches shown in red have bootstrap support above 75%. The bar at the centre indicates 20% amino acid divergence. The R. sanguineus sequences are indicated by a circle, and start with RS-. The sequences obtained from the NR database are indicated by 5 letters (3 from the genus and 2 from the species name) followed by the NCBI accession number. Remaining sequences were deduced from dbESTand are available from Francischetti et al. [8].
