Bayesian phylogeny analysis of vertebrate serpins illustrates evolutionary conservation of the intron and indels based six groups classification system from lampreys for ~500 MY
2015-05-26
Abstract excerpt
The serpin superfamily is characterized by proteins that fold into a conserved tertiary structure and exploits a sophisticated and irreversible suicide-mechanism of inhibition. Vertebrate serpins can be conveniently classified into six groups (V1-V6), based on three independent biological features - genomic organization, diagnostic amino acid sites and rare indels. However, this classification system was based on...
