Alu Subfamily Evolutionary Analysis

A combined dataset of 189 non-overlapping Alu subfamilies was analyzed with jModelTest-2.1.10 [32 (link)] to determine the best nucleotide substitution model for this dataset. The Akaike information criterion (AIC) and Bayesian information criterion (BIC) models were a gamma distribution. Both the AIC and BIC model selection were TrN+G (variable base frequencies, equal transversion rates, variable transition rates, and gamma distributed rate variation among sites). The TrN+G model is in agreement with a previous analysis of Alu subfamilies derived from the squirrel monkey genome [18 (link)].

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
