Figure 4From: Gene discovery for the carcinogenic human liver fluke, Opisthorchis viverriniDistribution of Opisthorchis viverrini assembled ESTs (OvAEs) that contain predicted signal peptides or signal anchors. OvAEs that had BLAST hits greater than 1 × 10-5 were sorted into conserved (those matching entries for species other than platyhelminths), phylum Platyhelminthes-specific (only matching platyhelminth entries) and novel (no significant homology to any database entry). The sequences in each category were then analysed for the presence of a signal sequence using SignalP. The relative percentages of each category are indicated along with the sub-category of signal sequence positive contigs.Back to article page
