Based on sequence alignment comparison with other previously characterized HMG-box proteins, we predict that the TOX HMG-box subfamily will likely fall into the sequence-independent category of HMG-box proteins.
This is intriguing considering that both mosquito and fly species belong to the same taxonomic order (Diptera), and diverged approximately 250 million years ago, as compared to the 450 million years separating pufferfish and humans [ 45 ] . It has been noted that only half the genes in the Drosophila and Anopheles genomes can be interpreted as homologues [ 46 ] . We have identified a 250 amino acid protein (CG12104-PA) in the Drosophila database, which contains a partial HMG-box motif with weak similarity to the TOX family.
Figure 1shows an alignment of the HMG-box region of TOX with HMG-box motifs found in seven other proteins representing the two major subfamilies of HMG-box proteins.
The HMG-box splits TOX family proteins into two domains of approximately 200-300 amino acids.
Zebrafish also contain multiple putative TOX family members (data not shown).
