Distribution of SET-domain families in fourteen genomes. Shaded in yellow are genes found in all tested species; peach-colored genes were found only in the Saccharomycotina. Genes found in tested genomes except in the Saccharomycotina are shaded in turquoise, while those found only in multicellular species are shown in pink. Genes specific for the filamentous fungi are shown in grey. A related gene found in Arabidopsis is shaded in grey as well. Metazoa-specific genes are shaded in Bordeaux red. Footnotes: ^a genome size; ^b approximate numbers of predicted open reading frames; ^c the Su(var)3-9 gene in S. pombe is known as the Clr4; ^d one of the two copies is known as the DIM-5 gene in N. crassa and the second shows a weak similarity to G9a; ^e filamentous fungal genes belonging to the large SET5/6 family; ^f "unknown" genes have no significant support to cluster with any SET-domain family identified in this study; ^g numbers in parentheses indicate numbers of total SET-domain genes found in these animal/plant genomes [20, 21].
