Evolutionary analysis of 2ece
From MDWiki
Jump to navigationJump to search
The amino acid sequence of selenium binding protein 2ece, sourced from the organism Sulfolobus tokodaii str. 7, was compared with other proteins using a psi blast(Media:psiblast.txt), with hits from the results hand selected (to show biological diversity) to go through a multiple sequence alignment in clustalx with portions of the alignment shown below
The segments in red boxes are reasonably highly conserved amongst the organism, and the segment in a brown box apperas to be a common insertion shared between some organisms. The protein sequences are labelled with gi numbers, the table below associates organisms to specific gi numbers.
