Trichomonas vaginalis vast BspA-like gene family: evidence for functional diversity from structural organisation and transcriptomics

Table 3 Taxonomic distribution of proteins sharing a glycine-rich domain found in 12 TvBspA.

Taxa	Bit Score^a	E-value^a	No. of hits^b	Top hit annotation

^aThe values for the top BlastP hits (query: TVAG_174900 GRD, residues 1-267, E-value <1.0E-4) only are shown. The complete taxonomic report listing all hits is given in additional file 13, Table S8. The taxa are listed by decreasing bit scores. The shown values for T. vaginalis correspond to the non-self top hit, entry TVAG_191460.
^bThe values give the number of hits per genome. The 12 TvBspA possessing the GRD were hit and include the query sequence. There is an additional 51 T. vaginalis proteins that possess a related GRD that do not possess TpLRR.
