From: Evolution and divergence of the mammalian SAMD9/SAMD9L gene family
Positively-selected SAMD9 codons and respective physicochemical properties for each mammalian species. SAMD9 sites under positive selection identified by at least three of the six used Maximum Likelihood methods. Codons are numbered according to the SAMD9 deduced proteins alignment (Additional file 5: Figure S4). The abbreviations correspond to the following species common names: Hosa - Human; Patr - Common chimpanzee; Gogo - Western gorilla; Poab - Sumatran orangutan; Nole - Northern white-cheeked gibbon; Mamu - Rhesus monkey; Bota - Cow; Susc - Pig; Eqca - Horse; Mylu - Little brown myotis; Orcu - European rabbit; Rano - Brown rat; Crgr - Chinese hamster; Capo - Domestic Guinea pig; Soar - Common shrew. To access the species scientific names, the list of abbreviations should be consulted. The background colors represent amino acid properties: polar positive (yellow), polar negative (orange), polar neutral (green), non-polar neutral (purple), non-polar aliphatic (blue) and non-polar aromatic (pink).
