“…These overall features are readily observed for the predicted frog PTL and PLR1 three-dimensional structures. Table 1 and Supplementary Table 1 summarize the predicted locations for vertebrate PTL-like genes based upon BLAT interrogations of genomes using the reported sequences for human PTL, PLR1, PLR2 and PLR3 [6,9,56,61] and the predicted sequences for other vertebrate PTL-like proteins and the UC Santa Cruz Genome Browser [49]. The mammalian PTL-like genes were predominantly transcribed on the positive strand and located in the following gene order: PLR3-PTL-PLR1-PLR2 for human (see Supplementary Figure 2), orangutan and rhesus genomes; and PTL-PLR1-PLR2 for other mammalian genomes, including mouse, rat, dog, pig, rabbit, opossum and platypus genomes (Table 1 and Supplementary Table 1).…”
