Figure 3

Secondary structure prediction and three-dimensional (3D) model of the VP2 capsid protein. The Jpred 4 database was used to predict the secondary structure (residues, 1–160) obtained from a local SAT 2 isolate (gb|AAZ83686). Red arrows highlight predicted β-strands. Cylinders and lines, shown in light purple color, highlight the α-helices and connecting loops, respectively. Amino acid residues in blue and underlined represent highly conserved sequence among different FMDV types. The 3D structure for the VP2-capsid protein, in ribbon format, is shown as an insert in the upper right corner of the figure.
