Figure 4

Zinc finger domains in the Makorin protein family. Black hexagons indicate the RING domain, white rectangles the C3H zinc fingers. Dashed lines and lighter content indicate incomplete motifs due to sequence changes or loss. The structure of Mkrn2 for Xenopus is based on a X. laevis EST (EF626804) since the tropicalis sequence is incomplete and lacks the RING domain. Accession numbers are provided in Additional file 2.
