Alignment of the deduced amino acid sequence of HhMan of Hypothenemus hampei with those of other GH5 mannanases. Identical or similar amino acid residues are listed in black or gray, respectively. Glutamic acid residues and the residues highly conserved of the active site are indicated asterisk (*) below the alignment. The regions of HhMan with secondary structure α-helices or β-folded sheets shown on the alignment.
