Putative novel member of the CLIPA protein subfamily. (a) Phylogenetic tree of CLIPA subfamily proteins and the novel member described here - PUT CLIPA5B. The protein CG5390 is the closest Drosophila relative to this protein. Bootstrap values are shown as percentages of 1,000 replications (see Materials and methods). (b) Genomic region containing the putative gene. Yellow bars indicate Ensembl 16 transcripts, cDNA evidence is shown in red and cDNA clusters are shown in green. Similarity and proximity suggest that this novel member probably arose through a recent duplication of CLIPA5.
