FIG. 1. Alignment of the deduced amino acid sequences of five XFGFR cDNAs cloned from Xenopus embryos. Schematic structure of a prototype FGF receptor is shown at the top. The sequences were aligned using GeneWorks software (Intelligenetics). Gaps in the sequence are positioned with dashes and are introduced to maximize alignment. Amino acids are numbered at the right. Characteristic structural domains are indicated by double-headed arrows. These include signal peptide (SP); immunoglobulin-like domain (Ig domain) I, II, and III; acid box; transmembrane region (TM); and tyrosine kinase domain (TK domain) I and II. References and accession numbers to GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ database for each XFGFR are as follows: XFGFR-1 (Friesel and Dawid, 1991), M55163; XFGFR-2 (Friesel and Brown, 1992), X65943; XFGFR-3 (this report), AB007035; XFGFR-4a (this report), AB007036; XFGFR-4b (this report), AB007037.
