From: Antarctic marine ciliates under stress: superoxide dismutases from the psychrophilic Euplotes focardii are cold-active yet heat tolerant enzymes

Figure 1

Phylogenetic analysis of E. focardii SODs. Cu,Zn (shaded in orange) and Fe/MnSODs (shaded in light blue) from E. focardii and other ciliates were compared with the homologous sequences from the protist Dictyostelium discoideum and from psychrophilic bacteria. Sources and accession number of SOD enzymes are reported in Table S1. Cyan and red diamond symbols indicate ciliates that belong to Spirotrichea and Oligohymenophorea classes. The tree was obtained by using Neighbour-Joining (NJ); the numbers on the branches represent bootstrap values for 1000 replicates.
