Genomic organizations of thioredoxin (Trx)-dependent PHGPx genes. The chromosomal structures of insect and plant genes that encode the Trx-dependent proteins were compared to each other to detect orthologous introns. The insect genes are categorized into three groups according to their conservation patterns. The symbol § marks the gene with the Cys motif in its encoded protein. More detail is presented in the legend to Figure 5.
