Breakdown of pan-platyhelminth E. granulosus genes.

Pan-Platyhelminth genes were defined as Platyhelminth specific sequences with significant BLAST scores (bit score ≥50) to four or more other platyhelminth EST datasets. The highest BLAST bit scores for each of 11 platyhelminth datasets is shown (consider that a bit score of 50 is roughly equivalent to an e-value of e-5, 100∼e-8, 200∼e-20, etc): Em - Echinococcus multilocularis; Ts - Taenia solium; Cs - Clonorchis sinesis; Fh - Fasciola hepatica; Ov - Opisthorchis viverrini; Sj - Schistosoma japonicum; Sm - Schistosoma mansoni; Dj - Dugesia japonica; Dr - Dugesia ryukuensis; ScM - Schmidtea mediterranea; Ml - Macrostomum lignano. Clusters with predicted secretory leaders (bold) or signal anchors (underlined) are indicated.
