Evolutionary change in invertebrate cytochromec

  • Published:
Journal of Molecular Evolution Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Recently published amino acid sequences are compared to those of other cytochromesc. Molecular phylogenies constructed by using an ancestral sequence method are compared to the classical biological view of invertebrate evolution. Problems associated with the analysis of sequences of different chain lengths and of high variability are discussed, and the logistics of increasing the representation of key invertebrate phyla is assessed.
