From: Phylogenomic analysis of vertebrate thrombospondins reveals fish-specific paralogues, ancestral gene relationships and a tetrapod innovation

Figure 3

Syntenic relationships of TSP-1 gene loci in fish and tetrapods. The physically-mapped genomes of human, mouse, chicken, T. nigriviridis, T. rubripes and D. rerio were used to identify conserved gene neighbors of the TSP-1 gene. In each panel, each diagram represents the order of genes on the chromosome in the vicinity of the relevant TSP gene. Each horizontal line represents a gene; only the conserved genes are labeled with gene names. Protein designations are used for genes lacking a gene name. TSP genes are shown in bold. Numbers above and below each diagram refer to the position on the chromosome in bases. For visual simplicity of presentation, all diagrams are orientated for similarity of gene order.
