FIG. 1.

Fungi bHLH entropies, logos, and consensus. (A) The bHLH normalized group entropy by position. Lower values indicate conservation, whereas values close to one approach complete randomness. (B) The graphical representation of the amino acids at each position of the bHLH domain. Symbols representing amino acids are scaled by their bit score (a derivation of entropy) at a given position. (C) The 50-10 consensus sequences for fungi. Using an alignment of bHLH domains, amino acids occurring at a frequency of more than 50% at a given site are displayed. At each of these sites, additional amino acids are displayed beneath if they are conserved in 10% or more of the sequences.
