Fig. 4

Presence of SOD antioxidant enzymes within 9 different subcellular compartments of 19 metazoan species. Shapes denote either CuZnSOD (circle) or MnSOD (triangle). Subcellular compartments indicated as column headings are predictions based on amino acid sequence analysis by DeepLoc-2.0, https://services.healthtech.dtu.dk/service.php?DeepLoc-2.0 [39]. Colours denote monophyletic clades SOD1, SOD2, Rsod and SOD2X, based on Fig. 2. SOD3 is denoted by two shades of grey that corresponds with the two phylogenetically distant paraphyletic groups in Fig. 2. Sequences that do not align with any particular group are not coloured. Total number of SOD genes encoded by each species in Table 1
