Molecular Characterization of High Mobility Group Box 1a (HMGB1a) Gene in Red-Bellied Pacu, Piaractus brachypomus

Figure 2

Predicted cartoon model of the PbHMGB1a protein. The structure of the protein was predicted using the BIOZENTRUM SWISS-MODEL tool. (a) The domains of the protein and the presence of α-helices and cysteines (Cys) and phenylalanine (Phe) are illustrated. (b) HMG-box B domain and location of phenylalanine (Phe), tryptophan (Trp), lysine (Lys), and tyrosine (Tyr). HMG-box A domain (blue), HMG-box B (pink), the cysteines (yellow), the phenyl rings (orange), tryptophan (light blue), lysine (white), tyrosine (blue), N-terminus (N), and C-terminus (C).
