Figure 1

Alignment of crustacean prophenoloxidase-activating enzymes. The signal peptides are bold and double-underlined. The six clip-domain cysteines are indicated with the letter "C," and the black triangle indicates the active cleavage site. The amino acid residues corresponding to the serine proteinase catalytic triad are marked by black stars. Glycine-rich and proline-rich domains are marked separately by solid lines. Gene Bank accession numbers are as follows: pmPPAE1 (Penaeus monodon, Genebank ID: ACP19558), plPPAE (Pacifastacus leniusculus, Genebank ID: CAB63112), ptSP (Portunus trituberculatus, Genebank ID: ACI46638).
