Putative amino acid alignment of HCcyst-3 with another nematode type 2 cystatins: CEcyst-1 of Caenorhabditis elegans(GenBank: AF100663); CEcyst-2 of Caenorhabditis elegans(GenBank: AF068718); NBcyst of Nippostrongylus brasiliensis(GenBank: AB050883); BMcyst-1 of Brugia malayi (GenBank: U80972); BMcyst-2 of Brugia malayi (GenBank: AF015263); LScyt of Litomosoides sigmodontis (GenBank: AF229173); OVcyst-1 of Onchocerca volvulus (GenBank: AF177194); OVcyst-2 of Onchocerca volvulus(GenBank: P22085); and AVcyst of Acanthocheilonema viteae (GenBank: L43053). The predicted signal peptide of each sequence was excluded. The conserved cystatin active sites are boxed (1: N-terminal conserved glycine; 2: QXVXG conserved motif; 3: PW conservative site)
