Figure 4From: Understanding the evolutionary structural variability and target specificity of tick salivary Kunitz peptides using next generation transcriptome dataAntigenicity and intrinsic protein disorder. Variations in antigenicity (A) for each group as predicted by the VaxiJen server [55] that uses an alignment-independent algorithm based on the physicochemical properties of proteins [55]. Ratio of disordered compared to the total sequence (B) for each group as predicted by the MetaDisorder server that builds a consensus from 13 protein disorder predictors [56]. Panel C shows the correlation for G4 between antigenicity (x-axis) and intrinsic protein disorder (y-axis).Back to article page
