Evolutionary analysis of animal haem peroxidase domains between Drosophila Cysu with vertebrate and invertebrate proteins. (a) Percent Identity Matrix created with ClustalW 2 predicts the similarity in the cysu sequence to invertebrate and vertebrate proteins. Cysu is more than 72% identical to that of the invertebrates considered here except for C. elegans. The average identity of Cysu with vertebrates remained low at approximately 36%. (b) Phylogenetic Tree generated with MEGA7 indicates evolutionary relationships between Drosophila Cysu with vertebrate and invertebrate proteins. Drosophila melanogaster (DMELA), Anopheles gambiae (AGAMB), Culex quinquefasciatus (CQUIN), Acyrthosiphon pisum (APISU), Bombyx mori (BMORI), Tribolium castaneum (TCAST), Pediculus humanus (PHUMA), Caenorhabditis elegans (CELEG), Homo sapiens (HSAPI), Macaca mulatta (MMULA), Xenopus tropicalis (XTROP), Mus musculus (MMUSC)
