Alignment of the predicted Pdf peptide sequence of 10 D. melanogaster, 6 D. sechellia and 5 D. simulans strains. The consensus sequence is displayed at the bottom. Amino acid residues were coloured by chemical similarity using JalView. Periods indicate conserved amino acid residues and letters indicate variable residues. No fixed differences are observed between species.
