Fig. 1. A Comparison of NK-homeodomains to the homeodomain of XNkx-2.3.
The top line shows the consensus sequences for homeodomains (Guazzi et al.,
1990). To obtain PCR clones from Xenopus and mouse adult heart, degenerate
oligonucleotide primers were designed to the underlined amino acid regions (for
details, see Materials and Methods). The PCR clones obtained in this manner
corresponded to each homeodomain shown here, with the exception of Bagpipe
and Tinman, which are shown for purposes of comparison only. XPCR-3 and
mPCR-13 are two clones that were obtained and which appear to have novel
NK-homeodomains. References for all the listed homeodomains are in the text.
The amino acid sequence is shown as single-letter code, and dashes indicate
identity with XNkx-2.3. Image published in: Evans SM et al. (1995) Copyright © 1995. Image reproduced with permission of the publisher and the copyright holder.
