Figure 1

The zinc-finger (ZF) domain is highly conserved between humans and the dipteran insects, Ae. aegypti, An. gambiae and D. melanogaster . Each of the eleven ZFs were aligned using the ClustalW algorithm. Identical and highly conserved residues are highlighted in gray. Weakly conserved residues, the zinc-coordinating residues, and the amino acids with identical binding site recognition properties are indicated in gray, red and blue font respectively.
