Extended Data Figure 4

Maximum-likelihood phylogenic tree of Cas9 proteins, showing the previously described systems colored based on their type: II-A in blue, II-B in green and II-C in purple. The archaeal Cas9 (in red), cluster with type II-C CRISPR-Cas systems, together with two newly described bacterial Cas9 from uncultivated bacteria. Detailed tree is provided in Supplementary Data 5.
