The phylogenetic tree of Vps26A proteins from different species. Phylogenetic analysis based on the Vps26A amino acid sequences from various animals. The phylogenic tree for the Vps26A proteins was constructed using the neighbor-joining method. The origins and accession numbers of the Vps26A sequences were: Bos taurus (NP_001068923.1); Equus caballus (XP_005613841.1); Mus musculus (NP_598433.1); Panthera tigris altaica (XP_015399148); Ovis aries musimon (XP_011980964.1); Orcinus orca (XP_004280845.1); Alligator sinensis (XP_006023201.1); Gallus gallus (XP_421577.2).
