Fig. 1.2. a, Tissue expression of the COTS EPDR genes. b, Phylogeny of EPDR proteins. COTS genes are labelled and are marked with red lines; other asteroids, two shades of orange and yellow lines; sea urchins, dark green; hemichordates, light green; molluscs, pink; annelids, purple; cnidarians, black; and vertebrates, blue. The three clades to which COTS sequences belong are indicated by the outer circle. The asterisk denotes the fish-specific true ependymin clade. c, One of the COTS EPDR gene clusters on scaffold 218, with exons (grey bars and arrowheads), intergenic regions and introns (thin black lines) and direction of transcription (arrowhead at end of coding sequence) shown. Scale bar, 10 kb. In all panels, EPDRs secreted by COTS into the seawater are highlighted by red or green.
