BMC Genomics 2009, 10:101 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/10/101 FAilgigunrmee3nt of amino acid sequences that have similarities to lipoprotein_1 family proteins, which are linked to Sequence #2 Alignment of amino acid sequences that have similarities to lipoprotein_1 family proteins, which are linked to Sequence #2. Peptide sequences are from eleven loci in Borrelia plasmids. Sequences identified by plasmid names are those that have not been anotated. X denotes a stop codon found at positions 38 and 98 of Bb lp56. Amino acid color code: red, hydrophobic and aromatic amino acids, blue, acidic, magenta, basic, green, hydroxyl and amine containing as specified by the EMBL-EBI CLUSTALW 2.0.8 multiple sequence alignment program [31,32].
