Figure 3

Syntenic analysis of novel K-Channel genes ( KCNV2L , KCNQ1L , and KCTD12L ) that are absent in humans. (A-F) Schematic representation of conserved chromosomal loci in select vertebrate species that contain orthologs of KCNV2 (A), KCNV2L (B), KCNQ1 (C), KCNQ1L (D), KCTD12 (E) and KCTD12L (F). See Results text for details. The green box in D highlights the placement of the conserved syntenic group in lizard on Chr_Un. Misplacement was likely caused by a genome assembly error. The relative position of each K-Channel gene of interest is indicated in red; intervening genes are indicated in black. The chromosome or scaffold is indicated beneath each species name. Scale bars indicate the approximate distance between genes.
