Sequence alignment of Har-POU with POU-M1/-M2 from B. mori and Drifter from D. melanogaster. (A) The POU-specific and homeobox domains are underlined. Identical residues are shaded in black. The numbers on the right indicate the amino acids of each protein. (B) Amino acid sequence similarities of 28 amino acids from residue 106 to residue 133 of POUs. The highly conserved residues (≥67%) are shaded in black.
