Oxidative Stress in Caenorhabditis elegans: Protective Effects of Spartin
Fig 1
Protein F57B10.9 in C. elegans is the orthologue of SPG20 in H. sapiens.
(A) Protein sequence alignment using Clustal omega of F57B10.9 and SPG20. These sequences share 23% identity and 65% similarity. Conserved amino acids are marked in grey, and identical amino acids are marked in black. (B) F57B10.9 has one predicted transcript, and the tm5514 deletion mutation spans exons 1 through 6.
