Conservation of the novel K8/K18 variants among species. (A−E) Sequences surrounding the novel K8/K18 variants detected in acute liver failure patients. Dots highlight conserved amino acids, while dashes indicate gaps which are included to optimize sequence alignment. The figure was assembled using the following sequences: K8: NM_ (Homo sapiens), NM_ (Rattus norwegicus), NM_ (Mus musculus), NM_ (Xenopus laevis), NM_ (Danio rerio); K18: NM_ (Homo sapiens), NM_ (Rattus norwegicus), NM_ (Mus musculus), NM_ (Xenopus laevis), NM_ (Danio rerio). There is limited conservation of the involved residues when compared among the type-I and type-II keratins (not shown).
