Figure 1

Protein sequence alignment and motif analysis of GsAQPs. Multiple sequence alignment of the full-length amino acid sequences of GsAQPs. The protein sequences were aligned using Muscle alignment tool with default parameters on Geneious 7.1 software. The similarity is depicted through colors in Clustal format. The NPA motifs (black small arrow) were identified using motif detection tool in Geneious 7.1. The transmembrane region (TMR) domains were predicted using transmembrane prediction tools in Geneious 7.1, and depicted as blue colored boxes.
