Table 1 Amino acid sequences of the EDI-EDII hinge region among flaviviruses.

From: Identification of the flavivirus conserved residues in the envelope protein hinge region for the rational design of a candidate West Nile live-attenuated vaccine

  1. The properties of amino acids are shown in green (hydrophobic), pink (polar), red (negatively charged), blue (positively charged), and black (unique). The numbers correspond to the amino acid positions in WNV E protein. The asterisk symbol is used to highlight the eight conserved hydrophobic residues in the four different motifs of EDI-EDII hinge region. Genbank access numbers: WNV-AF253491, JEV-M18370, MVEV-X03467-, St. Louis encephalitis virus (SLEV)-AY289618, Rocio virus (ROV)- MF461639, YFV-AY640589, DENV-1-KM204119, DENV-2-AF038403, DENV-3-M93130, DENV-4-AY947539, ZIKV-MW143022, tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV)-U27495, Powassan virus (POWV)- L06436, Langat virus (LGTV)-AF253419, Omsk hemorrhagic fever virus (OHFV)- AB507800.
