Synteny plots demonstrating SULT1A3 is the progenitor locus of the hominoid SULT1A family. Each box shows a VISTA percent identity plot between a section of the human genome and a section of a rodent genome. Different rodent genomes and alignment methods are indicated as follows: 1 = mouse (Oct. 2003 build) multiple alignment method (MLAGAN); 2 = rat (June 2003 build) multiple alignment method (MLAGAN); 3 = mouse (October 2003 build) pairwise alignment method (LAGAN). Human gene locations are shown above and human chromosome 16 coordinates below.
