Fig. 3

Presence of plasminogen activation system members and related paralogues among the chordate species investigated. Squares indicate absence (light grey), presence (dark grey) and duplication (black) of the different orthologues. Dashed-lines (---) indicate non-canonical protein domain composition. Approximate divergence time in million years ago (mya) was collected from [54,55,56,57,58,59]. PLG (plasminogen), HGF (hepatocyte growth factor), MST-1 (macrophage stimulating 1), HABP2 (hyaluronan binding protein 2), HGFAC (hepatocyte growth factor activator), tPA (tissue-type plasminogen activator) and uPA (urokinase-type plasminogen activator), VTN (vitronectin), uPAR (urokinase-typle plasminogen activator receptor), LU (Ly6/LU domain)
