Extended Data Fig. 6: Absence of a fusion loop in E glycoprotein homologues of the jingmenviruses.

From: Mapping glycoprotein structure reveals Flaviviridae evolutionary history

Extended Data Fig. 6

Structurally conserved E protein fusion loops (FL) were found in orthoflavi-, LGF-, and in pesti-like viruses. The FL is absent from the E protein homologue of the jingmenviruses (its expected location is marked by an asterisk). Amino acid side chains are shown for the FL only.
