Amino acid alignment of deer mouse (DM), cotton rat (CR), house mouse (HM) and human (HU) GM-CSF. Polypeptides were aligned with the clustal algorithm in Macvector. Conserved (light shading) and identical (dark shading) amino acids are enclosed in boxes. The 25-residue signal peptide is enclosed in box A. Helix A, which binds to the β chain subunit of the GM-CSF receptor, is enclosed in box B. Deer mouse and house mouse GM-CSF share 13 of 15 identical residues in this domain.
