  1. 1Class I receptor chains are listed (and ordered by structural groups in the case of zebrafish) along with their Accession Number of the nucleotides (zebrafish) or protein (T. nigroviridis), closest human homologue based on percentage identity of the full-length protein, topology (Figure 1), synteny (Additional file 3) and expression status. Expression of zebrafish receptor chains was analyzed by RT-PCR on RNA extracted from either 24 hpf or 72 hpf, with the presence of an appropriately sized product following agarose gel electrophoresis indicated with a plus (+), or its absence with a minus (-). The existence of corresponding EST(s) is indicated for all sequences, including those from sea squirt. The numbers indicates amino acid coverage; bolded numbers represent either coverage of the start or stop codons, and absence with a minus (-). Brackets indicate sequences for which full-length sequence was unavailable, and so the CHD only was used, with double brackets indicating availability of only a partial CHD sequence. ^ indicates synteny with T. nigroviridis and ^^ indicates synteny with T. rubripes. Two additional receptors were omitted from the table and the final tally of receptors because these sequence was partial (tpor (GenBank accession no. BN001083)), have silent and missense mutations (il-4rα (GenBank accession no. BN000885)).
