Sequence alignment of adipokinetic hormones (AKH). The mature peptides are in the box and followed by the glycine required for amidation and dibasic cleavage sites. Conserved cysteines are marked by asterisks (*) on the top of the alignment. Note that the middle of the sequence is omitted. Sequences are from Anopheles_AKH1 (ABD43194.1), Aedes_AKH1(EAT35885.1), Locusta_AKH3 (P19872), Periplaneta_AKH (AAV41425.1), Blaberus_AKH (Q17128), Drosophila_AKH (NP_523918.1), Manduca_AKH (P67788), Apis_AKH (from Hummon et al. 2006), Locusta_AKH2 (P08379), Locusta_AKH1 (P55319), Anopheles_AKH2 (ABD60145.1), Aedes_AKH2 (EAT37004.1), and Locusta_AKH4 (Siegert 1999).
