The estimated values of synonymous (upper half) and nonsynonymous (lower half) divergence between D. melanogaster βCK2-related gene pairs
βCK2 | SSL | Su(Ste) | Ste eu | Ste het | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
βCK2 | — | 1.31 ± 0.52* | 1.53 ± 0.34 | 1.70 ± 0.43 | 1.60 ± 0.39 |
SSL | 0.46 ± 0.04 | — | 0.57 ± 0.09 | 0.88 ± 0.15 | 0.85 ± 0.15 |
Su(Ste) | 0.60 ± 0.05 | 0.29 ± 0.03 | — | 0.21 ± 0.05 | 0.20 ± 0.05 |
Ste eu | 0.57 ± 0.05 | 0.31 ± 0.03 | 0.09 ± 0.01 | — | 0.01 ± 0.01 |
Ste het | 0.57 ± 0.05 | 0.30 ± 0.03 | 0.07 ± 0.01 | 0.03 ± 0.01 | — |
Using the method of Nei and Gojobori (22) and corrected for multiple substitutions according to ref. 23, values represent mean ± SE. Deletions and stop codon [in the case of the Su(Ste) sequence] were not included in pairwise comparisons. The source D. melanogaster sequences for comparison is as follows: βCK2 sequence (GeneBank accession no. U52952U52952), Su(Ste) sequence [61.2 copy (15)], euchromatic Stellate sequence [Ste eu; pSX1.3 (12)], and heterochromatic Stellate sequence [Ste het; Ste1 copy (13)].
For this gene pair, corrected synonymous divergence was calculated only at 4-fold degenerate sites.
