- Table showing the degrees of protein sequence conservation in various D14/KAI2 clades. Four degrees of conservation were used: ‘invariant’ (>99% of sequences in a given clade have the same amino acid at a given position), ‘highly conserved’ (>90% of sequences in a given clade have the same amino acid at a given position), ‘well conserved’ (>70% of sequences in a given clade have the same amino acid at a given position) and conserved (>50% of sequences in a given clade have the same amino acid at a given position). The values in the table indicate the percentage of positions that fall into these categories in a given clade. So, for instance, 6.8% of positions are invariant in the whole family. Values are cumulative, so ‘conserved’ includes all the positions that are well conserved, highly conserved and invariant. Bold text indicates values greater than 70%
