Figure 4. Protein alignment of 10 (LRP5) orthologs demonstrates conservation in the regions with mutations. The 10 orthologs are from
the following 10 species:
Homo sapiens (
NP_002326.2),
Pan troglodytes (
XP_508605.3),
Canis lupus familiaris (
XP_003432463.1),
Bos taurus (
XP_002699451.1),
Macaca mulata [
M. musculus] (
NP_032539.2),
Rattus norvegicus (
NP_001099791.2),
Gallus gallus (
NP_001012915.1),
Danio rerio (
NP_001170929.1),
Drosophila melanogaster (
NP_524737.2), and
Anopheles gambiae (
XP_320740.4). The regions with the four missense mutations are highly conserved. A422T stands for Ala422Thr, L540P stands for Leu540Pro,
Q816P stands for Gln816Pro, and T852M stands for Thr852Met.
