Human and mouse protease differences


This figure illustrates the distribution of human and mouse proteases in different families, and allows comparisson of human/mouse differences in protease content. It represents an unrooted phylogenetic tree of human and mouse proteases, divided in 63 different families. Each catalytic class is represented by a different colour: yellow, aspartyl proteases; blue, cysteine proteases; green, metalloproteases; red, serine proteases, and violet, threonine proteases. In the inner circle, mouse-specific proteases are shown as red lines, while human-specific proteases are shown as blue lines.






A second view of the same figure. If you have Adobe Acrobat v7.0 or higher, you can rotate this tree. Once you have clicked the window, you can also hide/show different branches with the keyboard:
'1' toggles aspartyl proteases
'2' toggles cysteine proteases
'3' toggles metalloproteases
'4' toggles serine proteases
'5' toggles threonine proteases
