Supplementary Figure 3: Phylogenetic tree used for the reconstruction of the ancestral myosin.
From: Mechanochemical evolution of the giant muscle protein titin as inferred from resurrected proteins
A total of 26 sequences were used. The tree was built by Bayesian inference using MCMC. The ancestors of interest are displayed with colored dots. We analyzed the sequences from LTCA (Last Tetrapod Common Ancestor), LSCA (Last Sauropod Common Ancestor) and LMCA (Last Mammal Common Ancestor) myosin molecules. Divergence times for ancestral nodes were collected from different sources (Hedges, S. B. et al. Mol Biol Evol 32, 835-845, 2015 and Benton, M. J. et al.. Palaeontol Electronica 18, 1-106, 2015). Posterior probabilities for each bifurcation are indicated.
