Figure 5: Maximum-likelihood phylogeny of RbcS.
From: Biochemical characterization of predicted Precambrian RuBisCO
A total 131 RbcS sequences were gathered in order 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/site.
