EMF1 with its paralogs and orthologs. (A) Disorder prediction by three different programs. (B) Conserved motifs predicted by meme, aligned to the disorder predictions. (C) Schematic gene tree of EMF1 and conserved motifs when comparing proteins in EMF1 orthologous group. Motifs that are conserved in all taxonomic groups are outlined in green. Stars at EMF1 mark motifs that have been previously described (the first two motifs were described as a single motif). The fifth already described motif (grey pentagon) is not present in gymnosperms. Nonsyntenic sporadic motifs that were likely false positives were removed for clarity of the figure. (D) Alignment conservation of three representative A. thaliana sequences, extracted from alignment of sequences of all three orthologous groups. As motifs do not take into account indels in sequences, this method returns different results.
