CFH and Macular Degeneration
Homology and Phylogeny
This web page was produced as an assignment for Gen677 at UW-Madison Spring 2010.
Phylogenetic Tree of CFH protein from http://www.genebee.msu.su/genebee.html
To determine the protein homologs of the Homo sapian CFH protein, a Clustal W alignment was done via the genebee website. Pan troglodytes and Homo sapian protein homologs are the most closely related, just as the two species are the most closely related.
