Figure Lengend Snippet: FIGURE 1 Phylogenetic tree of vertebrate calponin and isoforms. The phylogenetic tree was generated by alignment of amino acid sequences of calponin isoforms in representative vertebrate species with the DNASTAR MegAlign computer software (Lasergene, lnc, Madison, WI) using the Clustal W method. The sequence similarity-derived evolutionary lineages demonstrate that each of the calponin isoforms is conserved in the vertebrate phylum while the three isoforms have significantly diverged during vertebrate evolution. This pattern indicates the adaptation of the calponin isoforms to different cell functions and tissue environments. Calponin isoforms 1, 2, and 3 are marked in purple, red and green, respectively. The degrees of evolutionary divergence are indicated by the lengths of lineage lines.
