From: Phylogenetic and syntenic data support a single horizontal transference to a Trypanosoma ancestor of a prokaryotic proline racemase implicated in parasite evasion from host defences

Figure 4

Phylogenetic inferences (MP) based on PRAC pseudogenes from 17 T. rangeli isolates using T. conorhini as outgroup. The branching pattern showing clades corresponding to the phylogenetic lineages TrA-TrE indicates a close phylogenetic relationship among the lineages TrA, C, D, E with TrB from Amazonia as the basal lineage of T. rangeli. Genbank accession numbers of PRAC genes included in this analysis are in Additional file 2. The alignment of T. rangeli pseudogenes is showed in Additional file 4.
