Nucleotidic and aminoacid polymorphisms between the current sequenced cDNA clones and their best P. perniciosus salivary cDNA matches (BLASTn and ClustalW for nucleotidic and amino acidic alignments).
The number of nucleotidic polymorphisms fits the values of nonidentical nucleotides (column 5) minus the gaps (column 4).
Protein antigenic regions were predicted by in silico bioinformatics (Jameson-Wolf index, Protean program, DNAstar, Lasergene).
N-, and O-glycosylation sites prediction performed with NetNGlyc 1.0 Server and NetOGlyc 3.1 Server.
Phosphorylation sites prediction performed with NetPhos 2.0 Server.
Alpha helix and beta sheet locations were predicted by Garnier-Robson algorithm (Protean program, DNASTAR, Lasergene).
Two deletions in the nucleotidic sequence of SP02 (HE985075) lead to a switch of the reading frame of the gene.
