Fig. 4. Phylogenetic analysis of the chordate Pax-2/5/8 gene
family. The phylogenetic tree is based on multiple sequence alignments
of amino acids encoded by the common exons 6 to 10. The scale
bar measures the distance between the sequences. Units indicate the
number of substitution events. The evolutionary distance between any
two sequences is the sum of the horizontal branch length separating
them. Vertical distances are for illustration purposes only. Abbreviations:
a, amphioxus; h, human; m, mouse; X, Xenopus; and z, zebrafish.
The GenBank accession numbers for the Pax sequences used are:
aPax-2/5/8, AF053762; hPax-2, M89470; hPax-5, M96944; hPax-8,
L19606; mPax-2, X55781; mPax-5, M97013; mPax-8, X57487; XPax-
2a, Y10119; XPax-2b, Y10120; zPax-2.1, X63961; zPax-2.2, AF072547;
zPax-5, AF072548; zPax-8, AF072549. Image published in: Heller N and Brändli AW (1999) Copyright © 1999. Image reproduced with permission of the Publisher, John Wiley & Sons. Larger Image Printer Friendly View |
