The domain organization of the fused proteins was found to correspond
to the domain organization of two individual proteins in one or
more other microalgal species, as shown in Table 2. In order to display
the comparison between the domain organization of the fused and the
individual proteins, one of those species was chosen as representative
and the diagrammatic representations are visible in Fig. 1.Itshouldbe
noted that the individual fusion or fission C. reinhardtii proteins in the
first two fusion and single fission events are encoded by nonhomologous
genes residing in different chromosomes/scaffolds/contigs.
This also applies to the individual fusion proteins in T. pseudonana and
