Subject areas: Evolution, Genome studies, Bioinformatics Additional filesAdditional data file 1: This phylogeny was calculated using a Bayesian approach (MrBayes) based on a MAFFT alignment of Peptidase_C14 domains. Posterior probability values are shown for each branch (for detailed information, see Materials and methods). Species abbreviations: BRAFL, Branchiostoma floridae (amphioxus); BRARE, Brachydanio rerio (zebrafish); CAEBR, Caenorhabditis briggsae; CAEEL, Caenorhabditis elegans; CANFA, Canis familiaris (dog); CHICK, Gallus gallus (chicken); CIOIN, Ciona intestinalis (sea squirt); DROME, Drosophila melanogaster (fruit fly); FUGRU, Fugu rubripes (Japanese pufferfish); NEMVE, Nematostella vectensis (starlet sea anemone); STRPU, Strongylocentrotus purpuratus (purple sea urchin); TETNG, Tetraodon nigroviridis (green pufferfish); and XENTR, Xenopus tropicalis (western clawed frog). For a detailed list of protein sequences see Additional data file 4. Para-caspases are excluded from this phylogeny.
