Comparison of maspin amino acid sequence with those of other serpins

Comparison was run using the GCG program (Genetics Computer Group, Inc., Madison, Wisconsin). Highly conserved residues (from at least 6 out of 8 species) are indicated in the capital case. Row 1, mouse mMaspin (mmaspin_190); row 2, human maspin (MASP_HUMAN); row 3, horse serapin (HRSSERP_1); row 4, human monocyte-neutrophil elastase inhibitor (ILEU_HUMAN); row 5, plasminogen activator inhibitor type 2 (PAI2_HUMAN); row 6, chicken ovalbumin (OVAL_CHICK); row 7, human a 1-antitrypsin (A1AT_HUMAN); row 8, human plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI1_HUMAN). Arrows denote the putative reactive center site for mMaspin and other serpins.
