Clustal alignment of N protein amino acid sequences from different RABV variants used in this study.
N protein amino acid sequence from representative RABV variants circulating in different hosts are compared using Clustal Omega program. N protein from E Raccoon (GenBank U27221.1), NC Skunk (AF461045.1), SC skunk (ADF80603.1), AZ gray fox (JQ685899.1), Arctic fox (AEV22313.1), T. brasiliensis (bat, ACN51665.1), CVS-11 (Q8JXF6.1) and ERA (P0DOF3.1) are aligned by Clustal analysis. The most frequently observed peptide fragments in MS are underlined and boxed to demonstrate the conservation or differences in RABV variants.
