Molecular characterization of matrix metalloproteinase gene family across primates
Figure 1. Taxonomy of the primate species for investigation of MMPs. At the tip of each clade shows the common name followed by the Latin name of the organism. Tips shown in red represent species with comparative gene expression analyses performed. Shown at nodes are four major primate groups. Numbers in brackets are counting of MMPs identified for each organism.
