FIG. 4.—

An alignment of the 5′ region of cox1 and the abutting tRNA-Tyr. The dotted line indicates the tRNA; the solid line indicates the beginning of the cox1 gene as previously proposed. The comparative analysis indicates that the first amino acid after the tRNA (asparagines) is completely conserved across Polyphaga, suggesting a possible molecular synapomorphy for Polyphaga.
