RET mutations do not localize exclusively within a single functional domain.

Multiple alignment of the human RET protein and 11 vertebrate orthologs.

Enlarged Fig. 2B. Heat plot of the RET protein. The RET protein is displayed in rows, each of 186 residues. The vertical axis of each row represents all 20 amino acids (A-Y, top-bottom). The wild-type residue at each position is represented in black. Tolerance for any change from the wild type to another residue is indicated by color: red, orange, yellow, green, and blue. Red represents changes that are most highly intolerant, progressing towards blue, representing changes that are most likely to be tolerated. Mutations are boxed in white and shown below the corresponding position.

Graph of overlapping relative rates of protein evolution and MAPP scores for RET. Graph of overlapping relative rates of protein evolution and MAPP scores for RET. At each residue, an average was taken of the impact scores for every possible amino acid change. These positional MAPP scores were smoothed with a 19-residue sliding window, similar to the window used for the relative rate calculation.
