Phylogenetic tree of human, mouse, and rat UGT1 gene clusters. The tree was reconstructed based on variable region polypeptides by using the neighbor-joining method of the CLUSTAL W package. The tree branches are labeled with the percentage support for that partition based on 1000 bootstrap replicates. The scale bar equals a distance of 0.1.
