Venn diagram showing orthologs shared among human, the yeast S. cerevisiae, the apicomplexan P. falciparum, and T. thermophila. Lineage-specific gene duplications in each of the organisms were identified and treated as one single gene (or super-ortholog). Pairwise mutual best-hits by BLASTP were then identified as putative orthologs.
