Figure 4: Maximum-likelihood phylogeny of RbcL.
From: Biochemical characterization of predicted Precambrian RuBisCO
A total 125 RbcL sequences were gathered to maximize the sampling of the entire Form 1AB RuBisCO clade. Sequences were aligned with structural data using PROMALS3D. The phylogenetic tree was constructed using maximum-likelihood methods using PhyML software. The outgroup consists of Form 1C and 1D RuBisCO sequences used to root the Form 1AB subclade. The nodes of interest are shown in red, for which ancestral sequences were reconstructed. Scale bar, substitutions per site.
