Table 2.

Mean percentages of conservative (pNC) and radical (pNR) nonsynonymous differences per site, with respect to amino acid residue charge and polarity in variable regions and remainders of PAG genes

Property pNC, % pNR, %
Charge
 Variable 20.6  ± 1.5 30.3  ± 2.6**
 Remainder 10.0  ± 0.6 11.2  ± 0.9
Polarity
 Variable 24.5  ± 1.7 23.0  ± 2.3
 Remainder 10.9  ± 0.6 9.2  ± 0.8

Values are shown as mean percentages ± SEM. Tests of the hypothesis that pNC = pNR: **, P < 0.01.
