Fig. 11. Genomic structure and expression profiles of Ventx gene clusters. (A) Structures of ventx gene clusters. Humans only have one ventx gene in HSA10. However, in Xenopus, ventx genes are tandemly duplicated to form a cluster. X. tropicalis has 6 genes, whereas X. laevis has 11 genes, in which ventx3.1.S is a singleton due to pseudogenization of ventx3.1.L. Nanorana has single copies of ventx1 and vextx2 and two copies of ventx3 in scaffold_336. Zebrafish have vent and vox on DRE13 and ved on DRE10. HSA, Homo sapiens; NPA, Nanorana parkeri; DRE, Danio rerio. (B-G) Transcriptomic analyses for ventx cluster genes during oogenesis and embryogenesis. Data are shown in graphs similar to those in Fig. 1. See text for detailed explanations of variable expression profiles. Image published in: Watanabe M et al. (2017) Copyright © 2017.
