Table 1

Comparison of the amino acid sequences of human, Chinese hamster (C) HSP60, Escherichia coli (E), and Mycobacterium leprae (M) HSP65 [18].

Residues identical to the human HSP are indicated by dash. Significant sequence homology is found between mammalian and microbial HSP. E. coli-derived GloEL fragment and human HSP60 have 45.2% homology.
