Fig. 1. Sequence of the Xenopus Thylacine 1 and Thylacine 2 genes. (A) Xenopus Thylacine 1 cDNA sequence and deduced amino acid sequence. The amino acids in bold represent the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain. (B) Comparison of the amino acid sequences of Thylacine 1 and Thylacine 2. Dots indicate amino acid identity, dashes represent gaps introduced to maximise the alignment and black shading indicates the bHLH domain. (C) Comparison of Thylacine 1 and Thylacine 2 bHLH domains with other members of the bHLH family. Black shading indicates amino acid identity with Thylacine 1. Sequences were aligned using the MegAlign program (DNASTAR Inc.). GenBank accession numbers for the Thylacine 1 and Thylacine 2 nucleotide sequences are Y14446 and Y14447 respectively.
