Additional filesAdditional file 1: Pairwise similarity of ING family proteins in yeast and human. Using various alignment algorithms, we found that YNG1 is the ortholog of human ING1/2, YNG2 is the closest homolog to human ING4/5, and PHO23 (YNG3) is similar to human ING3.

Using the taxonomic tool in MAGPIE, we filtered the list of 1075 yeast ING-interacting proteins to only those having human homologs with e-value < 10-35, yielding 381 potential conserved interactions in human.

In order to increase the confidence in our predictions, we filtered the human-yeast common ING interactors to only those interactions conserved in fly (worm had poor homologs). We found 36 fly ING-interacting proteins with either yeast or human homologs, and only 5 showed conservation amongst the three species.
