  1. The numbers superscript at the last column represents the results from the Exact Fisher Test to the frequency of the potential protein domains in the two different groups. *p = 0.028, §p = 0.0551, p = 0.0022, Φp = 0.0283, p = 0.0108, p = 0.0551, p = 0.1047, Δp = 0.0108. N means the number of clones.
