The SKINT1-Like Gene Is Inactivated in Hominoids But Not in All Primate Species: Implications for the Origin of Dendritic Epidermal T Cells

Fig 6

Distribution of SKINT subfamily proteins across mammalian orders.

The phylogenetic relationship of mammals shown here is based on Murphy et al. [32] and Song et al. [33]. The copy number of SKINT genes belonging to each subfamily is shown for 47 mammalian species representing 22 orders. The copy number of functional and non-functional genes is indicated in black and red, respectively. The distribution of SKINT subfamily proteins in 14 primate species is shown separately on the right. Accession numbers of sequences and other relevant information are given in S2 Table.
