Fig. 8From: Targeting a cysteine protease from a pathobiont alleviates experimental arthritisAn amino acid motif shared by the catalytic domain of gingipain R and rat type II collagen. Shown are the sequences of amino acids common to the CD domain of gingipain and rat type II collagen. The UniProt numbering was used for gingipain (entry code B2RM93) and for the gene Col2a1 encoding collagen alpha-1(II) chain of Rattus norvegicus (entry code P05539)Back to article page
