Phylogenic tree of S1 serine proteases
A phylogenic tree of S1 serine proteases was built by Maxwell Krem &
Enrico Di Cera (WUSM St. Louis) from residues 16 to 245 according to the
chymotrypsin numbering. Original sequences were culled from GenBank.
89 non-redundant sequences were selected and aligned by Clustal-W
1.7. Protein distance matrices were calculated with PROTDIST
from the PHYLIP package. Unrooted
trees were built using the Fitch-Margoliash method with the PHYLIP
program FITCH 3.572c. Distances
are available here.
We are building trees for other serine protease families that will be
available soon.
