—Protein sequence alignment of hexapeptide, linker, homeodomain, and flanking region of medial Hox genes (Hox6–8 families) from a selection of bilaterians, demonstrating the degree of sequence divergence of Spirobranchus Antp (highlighted in red). Identities (full stop) are marked relative to the sequence of Tribolium castaneum Antp. Residue positions at which Spirobranchus Antp is the only variant sequence shown are marked with a black dot. Full sequence details are included in supplementary file 1, Sheet 2, Supplementary Material online. HEX., hexapeptide. Annelid sequences: S.lam, Spirobranchus lamarcki; C.tel, Capitella teleta; H.rob, Helobdella robusta; P.dum, Platynereis dumerilii; A.vir, Alitta virens. Brachiopod species: L.ana, Lingula anatina; T.tra, Terebratalia transversa. Mollusc species: C.gig, Crassostrea gigas; L.gig, Lottia gigantea; E.sco, Euprymna scolopes; O.bim, Octopus bimaculoides.
