Fig. 2

The structural disorder degree of different regions of KZFPs with different zinc finger divergence time grades in 7 mammals. a-d Box-plots of SDR values of KRAB domain (a), C2H2 zinc fingers (b), other domains (c) and linker region (d) in KZFPs with different zinc finger divergence time grades in 7 mammals. e Comparison of SDR values of KZFPs with different zinc finger divergence time grades and other proteins in 7 mammals. For box-plots, the values of upper and lower quartiles are indicated as upper and lower edges of the box, and the median values of median are indicated as a bar in the box. The number of KZFPs in each category is in Additional file 10. The differences of SDR value between different categories are examined by Mann–Whitney U test. The corrected P values are shown in the top of each panel. ns: p > 0.05, *: p < 0.05, **: p < 0.01, ***: p < 0.001, ****: p < 0.0001
