Protein domain structures (pdf)
- Vertebrate proteins Vertebrate mucin domain structures classified as Muc2, Muc5ac, Muc5b, Muc6 and Muc19. Domain structures were predicted with hmmscan of the hmmer package (hmmer.janelia.org), using Pfam domains (Finn et al. 2014) and plotted with in-house R scripts. Proteins are taxonmically sorted and are shown for the groups Muc19, Muc6, Muc2, Muc5 and ovomucin.
- Vertebrate proteins predicted from genomic sequences Domain structures of vertebrate mucins predicted from genomic sequences. Sequences were predicted using genewise (Birney, Clamp, Durbin 2004) as described under Materials and Methods.

- Invertebrate proteins predicted from genomic sequences Domain structures of invertebrate mucins predicted from genomic sequences. Sequences were predicted using genewise (Birney, Clamp, Durbin 2004)
Trees corresponding to Fig.1 but with bootstrap values (Newick format)
Tree corresponding to Figure 2 but based on PhyML with 100 bootstrap replicates. Branches without a number have bootstrap values = 100.
