Figure 6. Selective pressures on the PRAME family.

Figure 6

A. The dN/dS ratio distributions in different clades. Clade I has the lowest mean and median dN/dS ratios. The vertical axis represents the dN/dS ratio. The asterisk (*) represents the outliers of the data. B. Map of the positively selected sites detected in Clade IIa to the PRAME protein model. The selected sites derived from PAML analyses are mapped to the protein homology model. Eight of the 12 selected sites (red) are clustered in the inner concave region of the protein model. The model was built based on the PRAME gene (GenBank acc. no. XM_001256020.1) on BTA16. The predicted DNA binding site is highlighted in orange. The LXXLL motifs are highlighted in pink.
