Base composition, selection, and phylogenetic significance of indels in the recombination activating gene-1 in vertebrates

Table 4 Proportion of Rag1 sequences for which the homogeneity assumption is rejected.

Proportion of sequences (in % rounded up) of Rag1 for each group for which the assumption of homogeneous base composition is rejected using the disparity index test (p < 0.05; Monte Carlo test with 500 replicates). "N" indicates the number of sequences used. Alignment based on the 582 sequences dataset. "Bp" indicates the total number of base pairs or the base pairs range for the analyzed fragment after the within group alignment. Note that for Actinopterygii and Chondrichthyes only the 3'-end of the gene is indicated. "F", "5"' and "3"' indicate the full gene and the 5' and 3'-ends of the gene, respectively. "ZF" and "DB" indicate the zinc finger and DNA binding domains, respectively. See Methods for any additional information on the gene divisions and data available for each gene division.
