Figure 1

Illustration of genomic structures of three Halocynthia inward K+ rectifier genes. (A) Elementary inward K+ rectifier, TuIRKA genome sequence. (B) G-protein-activated inward K+ rectifier, TuGIRKAa genome sequence. (C) TuGIRKB genome sequence. In the figures, gray-filled squares and red open squares indicate coding exons and introns, respectively, in the coding regions. Sky blue indicates noncoding exons. Green and blue represent membrane-spanning and pore regions within the coding exons. The inserts in the respective figures represent expanded sequences of the regions containing the membrane-spanning and pore segments. Scales in the graphs are bp.
