The numbering below the alignment refers to the amino acid position in the protein sequence.
Bold letters denote identical amino acid residues.
The colon symbol (:) indicates amino acid residues with similar properties. Among the properties that can be shared between amino acids are hydrophobicity, polarity, charge, and presence of aromatic rings.
