Figure 2

Amino acid sequence comparison of the fusion protein genes of prototype human metapneumovirus isolates of each sublineage. The predicted signal peptide, fusion domain, and membrane anchor are shown in italics in boldface type, the cleavage sites are boxed, and the region sequenced for 84 samples is underlined in boldface type. Periods indicate the position of identical amino acid residues relative to isolate NL/1/00.
