Nucleotide and amino acid sequences of Tre-2 from the beet armyworm S. exigua. Underlined amino acid residues (1–18) and the arrowhead represent the signal peptide and putative cleavage site, respectively. Trehalase signature motifs (amino acid residues 165–178 and 466–475) are double underlined. The highly conserved glycine-rich region is shaded. The putative transmembrane region (residues 585–607) is shaded and boxed. Potential N-glycosylation sites (amino acid residues 49, 64, 261, 331, 337 and 419) are boxed. The nucleotide sequence reported in this paper has been submitted to GenBank under accession number EU106080.
