Figure 3

Of 32 deeply conserved snoRNA clans, three (SNORD29, SNORD33, SNORD61) contain two or more families that can independently be placed in the LECA. Closer inspection of predicted function (Additional file 1: Table S2) indicates that families within clans target orthologous sites, suggesting that clans are a product of the model building process in Rfam and do not reflect duplication events. Colored bars delineate eukaryote supergroups shown in Figure 2.
