Figure 2.
Phylogenic tree of the synuclein proteins. The distance between sequences is indicated by the number of substitutions. The GenBank accession nos. of the DNA sequences used to predict the protein sequences were L08850 (human α-synuclein), S69965 (human β-synuclein), AF044311 (human γ-synuclein), multiple aligned ESTs (mouse α-, β-, and γ-synuclein), AF007758 (rat α-synuclein), H32092 and D17764 (rat β-synuclein), X86789(rat γ-synuclein), L33860 (canary synelfin). SWISS-PROT accession nos. P33567 (bovine PNP14) and P37379 (torpedo synuclein) were also used.
