Fig. 4. Evolution of complex III and IV subunit composition in model species and in the lineage leading to Plasmodium falciparum.

Fig. 4

The subunit compositions of complex III (a) and complex IV (b) are based on data from model species and proteins from P. falciparum found to comigrate with that complex in this study. Colours depict levels of evidence (red, experimental evidence; white, genomic evidence) linking the subunit to the enzyme. Double circles represent the presence of paralogues and their colour indicates experimental evidence linking them to the complex. For PMPCA/UQCRC2 and PMPCB/UQCRC1, in cases where there has not been a gene duplication, the protein is indicated in the middle between the two columns. Human gene symbols are shown on top; P. falciparum gene names are shown below the conservation matrix.
