Figure Lengend Snippet: The feature of selected VNARs ( a ) The characterization of selected clone from each pool. n.d. = not detected. ( b ) VNAR amino acid sequence of selected clone. Complementarity determining region 1 (CDR1), Hyper variable region 2 (HV2), HV4 and CDR3 are expressed under the sequences. The sequences were expressed by using BioEdit version 7.2.5. Cysteine residues are highlighted in yellow. Positively charged amino acids, negatively charged amino acids, and hydrophobic amino acids in CDR3 are shown in red, green, and blue, respectively. ( c ) Sodium dodecyl-sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) of the selected clones under non-reducing condition. M: Protein Marker.
Article Snippet: CDR3 sequence comparison figures were created using the alignment function (Clustal W [ ]) in BioEdit version 7.2.5 (Bioedit, Manchester, UK).
