  1. The currently known synonyms for all gene products are listed under Name(s). Chromosomal locations of the genes, size of the cDNAs and proteins (where "?" indicates partial avian sequence), location of the patatin-domain within the proteins, % identities between the chicken and human proteins ("~" is used in cases where partial avian sequence is available), accession numbers of the mRNAs [64], and functions of the proteins where known (functional data from other species are also shown here), are listed with the relevant references. Note that information on the avian PNPLA5 could not be obtained, as described in the text.
