A Comprehensive Bioinformatics Analysis of the Nudix Superfamily in Arabidopsis thaliana
Figure 6
Gene duplication events in selective Nudix families. Maximum parsimony tree (selective regions shown adjacent to each other) depicting the phylogenetic relationships of Nudix hydrolase genes in the species A. thaliana , O . sativa, H. sapiens, S. cerevisiae, and S. elongatus rooted using the NudC gene from the gram negative bacterium Vibrio cholerae. Representative bootstrap values are shown as a percentage from 250 bootstrap replicates. ARATH and ORYSA are standard terminology for A. thaliana and O. sativa, respectively, according to the UniProt knowledgebase [37]. (b) Gene duplication events of the A hydrolase, coenzyme A pyrophosphatase, and FGFTNE families of Nudix hydrolases in A. thaliana. The gene tree from the species A. thaliana, O. sativa, H. sapiens, S. cerevisiae, and S. elongatus (Figure 6(a)) was reconciled with the corresponding binary species tree from NCBI as described in materials and methods section. D indicates a duplication event.
