FIGURE 5: Evolution of the Yap family in fungi. The Yap proteins have been indicated for seven fungal species: the hemiascomycetes S. cerevisiae, C. glabrata, K. lactis and C. albicans, the euascomycete A. nudilans, the archaeascomycetes S. pombe and the basidiomycete C. neoformans. The tree on the left is just a schematic representation of the phylogenetic relationships between these species. The whole genome duplication event is indicated by a black star. The remarkable protein domains (squares) and the described function (circles) are indicated for each Yap. The color code is indicated at the bottom of the figure.
