Conservation and evolution of bZIPs in eukaryotes. The consensus bZIP domain for each of the six main eukaryotic lineages is depicted with a logo [58]. The number of sequences/species used in this analysis is indicated in parentheses. Black circles indicate five highly conserved residues of the basic domain throughout eukaryote, which have been shown to be involved in DNA-binding site recognition in animals and yeast [17]
