Table 2.

Nonsynonymous (dN) and synonymous (dS) substitutions (± SE from 5000 bootstraps) as well as their ratio in ABS and non-ABS based on sites defined by Brown et al. (1993)

Site DN dS dN/dS P w ≠ 1 P w < 1
ABS N = 15 0.311 ± 0.118 0.407 ± 0.167 0.765 0.585 0.291
Non-ABS N = 42 0.084 ± 0.020 0.237 ± 0.064 0.353 0.065 0.030
All sites N = 57 0.131 ± 0.026 0.276 ± 0.060 0.474 0.039 0.020

ABS, antigen-binding sites; N, number of codons in each category; P, probability (α < 0.05) that dN and dS are different (w ≠ 1) and that dN<dS (w < 1) using a Z-test. Significant P-values are in bold.
