Multiple-sequence alignment and phylogenetic relationships of SNFL1 with homologous protein sequences. (a) Multiple-sequence alignment of sequences for SNFL1 and other GATA domain-containing proteins. The alignment of GATA domain-containing proteins was generated with ClustalX2.1 software. Dark blue shading indicates 100% similarity of the aligned sequence; pink shading indicates positions conserved in > 75% of the aligned sequences. (b) Phylogenetic tree for SNFL1 and GATA domain-containing homologs of high similarity constructed using MEGA 5.05 software
