1 Dynamic evolution of venom proteins in squamate reptiles Nicholas R. Casewell, Gavin A. Huttley and Wolfgang Wüster Supplementary Information Supplementary Figure S1. Phylogeny of the Toxicofera and evolution of the venom system under the single early origin (SEO) hypothesis of Fry et al. [10]. Simplified from Fry et al. [10] and Vidal and Hedges [52]. Key: LJ = lower jaw, UJ = upper jaw, red = venom, blue = non-venom.
2 Supplementary Figure S2. Bayesian DNA gene tree of the crotamine toxin family. Multiple support values are given at key nodes in the following order: Bayesian DNA, maximum likelihood (ML) DNA, Bayesian amino acid (aa), ML aa. x indicates no support for the node in that analysis. Tips of the tree coloured in red indicate Toxicoferan sequences sourced from the venom gland and blue those sourced from non-venom gland tissues ( physiological non-toxins). Pie charts represent the bpp of ancestral state reconstructions at that node: red = venom, blue = non-venom. The numbered codes for each sequence presented in the genetree represent GenBank GI accession numbers.
3 Supplementary Figure S3. Bayesian DNA gene tree of the CVF toxin family. Multiple support values are given at key nodes in the following order: Bayesian DNA, ML DNA, Bayesian aa, ML aa. x indicates no support for the node in that analysis. Tips of the tree coloured in red indicate Toxicoferan sequences sourced from the venom gland and blue those sourced from non-venom gland tissues ( physiological non-toxins). Pie charts represent the bpp of ancestral state reconstructions at that node: red = venom, blue = non-venom. The numbered codes for each sequence presented in the genetree represent GenBank GI accession numbers.
4 Supplementary Figure S4. Bayesian DNA gene tree of the hyaluronidase toxin family. Multiple support values are given at key nodes in the following order: Bayesian DNA, ML DNA, Bayesian aa, ML aa. x indicates no support for the node in that analysis. Tips of the tree coloured in red indicate Toxicoferan sequences sourced from the venom gland and blue those sourced from nonvenom gland tissues ( physiological non-toxins). Pie charts represent the bpp of ancestral state reconstructions at that node: red = venom, blue = non-venom. The numbered codes for each sequence presented in the genetree represent GenBank GI accession numbers.
5 Supplementary Figure S5. Bayesian DNA gene tree of the NGF toxin family. Multiple support values are given at key nodes in the following order: Bayesian DNA, ML DNA, Bayesian aa, ML aa. x indicates no support for the node in that analysis. Tips of the tree coloured in red indicate Toxicoferan sequences sourced from the venom gland and blue those sourced from non-venom gland tissues ( physiological non-toxins). Pie charts represent the bpp of ancestral state reconstructions at that node: red = venom, blue = non-venom. The numbered codes for each sequence presented in the genetree represent GenBank GI accession numbers.
6 Supplementary Figure S6. Bayesian DNA gene tree of the veficolin toxin family. Multiple support values are given at key nodes in the following order: Bayesian DNA, ML DNA, Bayesian aa, ML aa. x indicates no support for the node in that analysis. Tips of the tree coloured in red indicate Toxicoferan sequences sourced from the venom gland and blue those sourced from non-venom gland tissues ( physiological non-toxins). Pie charts represent the bpp of ancestral state reconstructions at that node: red = venom, blue = non-venom. The numbered codes for each sequence presented in the genetree represent GenBank GI accession numbers.
7 Supplementary Table S1. Comparison of Bayes factors generated by Bayesian analysis of codon partitioned and unpartitioned DNA datasets. Codon Unpartitioned: Unpartitioned: Gene family partitioned (H 0 ) mixed model (H A ) model selected (H B ) Bayes factors 2(H 0 H A ) 2(H 0 H B ) Crotamine ** 9.40 * CVF *** 3.22 * Cystatin *** * Hyaluronidase N/A *** - Lectin *** 4.90 * Kallikrein *** * Natriuretic *** 3.84 * NGF N/A *** - Veficolin *** 3.24 * Codon partitions utilised are displayed in Supplementary Table S2. Unpartitioned datasets were analysed with: (i) mixed models of sequence evolution (H A ) and (ii) models selected by MrModelTest v2.3 (H B ) [15]. The GTR + I + Γ models was selected by MrModelTest for each gene family except crotamine where GTR + Γ was selected. The marginal log-likelihoods produced by the codon partitioned datasets (H 0 ) were compared with unpartitioned datasets to generate Bayes factors (2logB10) = 2(H 0 H A or H B ). Interpretation of the differences between Bayes factors is taken from Kass and Raftery [40] - *** very strong, ** strong, * positive, NE little to no evidence. In all gene families Bayes factors advocate the use of codon partitioned datasets implementing multiple models of sequence evolution. N/A indicates where codon partitioned models are identical at each position and also the same as the unpartitioned model.
