From: Two COWP-like cysteine rich proteins from Eimeria nieschulzi (coccidia, apicomplexa) are expressed during sporulation and involved in the sporocyst wall formation

Structure of EnOWP2 (a) and EnOWP6 (b). a: The E. nieschulzi EnOWP2 gene has a length 1511 bp from the start to the stop codon. It harbours two intron of 53 bp and 54 bp length. The transcripts encodes 467 amino acids within 1404 bp. Cysteine residues occur in so called degenerated type I repeats, each repeat contains six cysteine residues, but in irregular distances. b: The E. nieschulzi EnOWP6 gene has a length 1660 bp from the start-to the stop codon. It harbours one intron of 123 bp length. The transcripts encode 514 amino acids within 1537 bp. Cysteine residues occur in type I repeats, each repeat contains six cysteine residues in regular distances similar to TgOWP6
