Figure 3

A three-species tree of the CMGC group. Phylogenetic tree showing members of the CMGC group of protein kinases from P. falciparum, yeast and human. The tree was compiled using conserved portions of aligned sequences using a protein distance matrix method; the tree shown is a consensus tree built from 100 bootstrap replicates. Branches with bootstrap values >70 are shown in red and >40 in blue. The scale bar represents 0.1 mutational changes per residue (10 PAM units). The P. falciparum sequences are identified by with their identifier in the PlasmoDB database and, where applicable, with the published name of the enzymes. The human sequences are labeled (black) with HUGO gene names (except for sk466, which is a numerical designation taken from Manning et al. (2002), and the yeast sequences (blue) identified according to the catalogue in Hunter and Plowman (1997).
