The distribution was determined by MEME motif analysis (version 4.9.1). The closest non-eukaryotic genes resembling LEA proteins for P. vanderplanki and prokaryotes were identified by a cross-Blast search and used for analysis. The height of the motif block is proportional to –log(P value), truncated at the height for a motif with a P value of 1e−10. MEME parameter settings were as follows: any number of repetitions for the distribution of motif occurrences; 11 for minimum and maximum motif width; and 2 for maximum number of motifs to find.
