Figure 5

Luminance color ramps for indicating protein conservation in the alignment. 10 hues were chosen to be equally distinct from each other in a perceptual color space to represent the presence of a conserved domain on a protein; the same color is used for the same protein across domains. Each step along the color map (and the colormap for the background at the bottom) indicates an increase in the amino acid conservation on the protein at that position.
