Phylogenetic analysis of Sox HMG domains. The ML tree was computed from an amino acid alignment of complete HMG domain sequences (79 amino acids in length, except for CheSox1, PpiSox2, PpiSox3, PpiSox12, EmuSox1, EmuSox2, and EmuSox3, for which only the 68 C-terminal amino acids were included). The tree likelihood was logL = -8361.8709. Numbers associated with branches correspond to ML bootstraps (100 replicates). Species names are abbreviated as follows: Ami, Acropora millepora; Aqu, Amphimedon queenslandica; Bfl, Branchiostoma floridae; Cel, Caenorhabditis elegans; Cin, Ciona intestinalis; Che, Clytia hemisphaerica; Dme, Drosophila melanogaster; Emu, Ephydatia muelleri; Hma, Hydra magnipapillata; Hsa, Homo sapiens; Lgi, Lottia gigantea; Mle, Mnemiopsis leidyi; Mmu, Mus musculus; Nve, Nematostella vectensis; Ppi, Pleurobrachia pileus; Sci, Sycon ciliatum; Spu, Strongylocentrotus purpuratus; Tad, Trichoplax adhaerens. Genes from M. leidyi that gave expression patterns for this study are indicated with an asterisk. Anthozoan cnidarian sequences are indicated in pink, hydrozoan cnidarian sequences are in orange, placozoan sequences are in purple, poriferan sequences are in green, ctenophoran sequences are in blue, and bilaterian sequences are in black.
