The unrooted Bayesian phylogeny of His-Me finger nucleases. The schematic sequence signatures (bottom-right) of each major group, and the lineages on the tree, are highlighted by the same color code. The positions of the conserved amino acids are indicated above the uppermost sequence bar, according to the sequence of the I-PpoI nuclease. The two catalytic residues (H98, N119) and H110 of the His-Me finger motif are marked with red font. The tree is based on the range from H40 to P128 of I-PpoI. Most of the C-terminal zinc-binding region is excluded because of the extreme sequence variability. The numbers on the tree indicate the posterior probabilities of the marked branches. The scale bar indicates one substitution/site. The sequence alignment is provided as Additional file 3: Data S4
