Molecular characterization of superoxide dismutase (FeSOD/MnSOD), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), and catalase peroxidase (KatG) protein isoforms identified in the genus Symbiodinium. Proportion of identical residues across represented clades is indicated for each isoform (for pairwise identities between types see Additional files 1, 5 and 7). Subcellular location indicated as cytosolic (C), mitochondrial (M), or as part of the secretory pathway (S). TargetP reliability classes (1-5) are indicated, where 1 indicates the strongest prediction. Length, molecular weights, and presence of GPI anchor are based on full-length sequences.

*based on results with “PLANT” settings in TargetP 1.1. for all sequences with complete N-terminal domains.

weights for SOD metalloforms and KatG refer to the monomer.
