Mitochondria have been known as power sources for energy transduction in eukaryotic cells. Hence, mitochondrial genomes and proteins have been used widely forphylogenetic analysis. However, nuclear-encoded mitochondrial proteins are considered in this study to construct phylogenetic relationship among species. An intuitive yet effective and efficient approach to solving relative positions of species is proposed. The derived phylogenetic map demonstrates a satisfactory result, and may indicate an alternative way for phylogenetic analysis. A more complete data set is nevertheless a need.
