Phylogenetic analysis of SmVALs and representative metazoan SCP/TAPS proteins reveal a clear and evolutionary distant split between group 1 and group 2 proteins. Phylogenetic trees were inferred by MrBayes 3.1.2 and illustrated by Treeview as described in Methods. Relative branch lengths are indicated, as are the Bayesian posterior probability support values that are greater than 0.5. A) A rooted phylogram is illustrated for the 29 SmVAL SCP/TAPS domain-containing proteins. B) An unrooted phylogram is illustrated for the representative metazoan SCP/TAPS domain-containing proteins. The non-S. mansoni protein sequences used have the following GenBank accession numbers: Vv Vesv5 [AAA30333], Dm AGR [AAB92563], Na ASP2 [AAP41952], Ce SCL1 [NP_502502], Ct Tex31 [CAD36507], Bm VAL1 [AAK12274], Ce CE09088 [NP_494312], Dm CG4270 [NP_608663], Hs GAPR1 [Q9H4G4], Ss NIE [AAD46493], Hh Helothermine [2122236A] and Hs CRISP1 [CAC34980]. Branch length represents the number of amino acid changes calculated by the WAG model and is indicated by the scale bars.
