From: A new approach for detecting adventitious viruses shows Sf-rhabdovirus-negative Sf-RVN cells are suitable for safe biologicals production

Fig. 5

Sf-RVN cell Maverick 1 and 2 INT and PRO are more similar to homologous proteins encoded by other Mavericks than to related viral proteins. a Amino acid alignment of the conserved integrase domain containing regions of Sf Maverick 1 and 2 INT, vertebrate Maverick CAP, and HIV integrase. Conserved amino acids involved in catalysis are indicated with a filled circle. b Unrooted tree showing the phylogenetic relationships among Sf Maverick and other insect and vertebrate Maverick INT proteins, and HIV integrase. c Amino acid alignment of the conserved cysteine endoprotease domain contraining regions of Sf Maverick 1 and 2 PRO, vertebrate Maverick PRO, and adenovirus adenain. Conserved amino acids involved in catalysis are indicated with a filled circle. d Unrooted tree showing the phylogenetic relationships among Sf Maverick and other insect and vertebrate Maverick PRO proteins, and adenovirus adenain.
