Syntenic relationship among frog tanabin, avian transitin and nestin from human, mouse and rat. Physical maps of human, mouse, rat and chicken genomic sequences along with an anuran scaffold (X. tropicalis scaffold_790) were used to identify genes neighboring nestin, transtin and tanabin. Each diagram represents a chromosomal region whose position is defined by the number of base pairs from the telomere of the short arm of the chromosome (top and bottom of each diagram). Each horizontal line represents a gene position on the chromosome. Nestin, transitin and tanabin genes are shown in bold for clarity. Diagrams are arranged in such a way that the gene positions are visualized in the same orientation. LMNA, lamin A/C; RHGB, Rhesus blood group, B glycoprotein; HAPLN2, hyaluronan and proteoglycan linked protein 2; BCAN, brevican; PRCC, papillary renal cell carcinoma; SH2D2A, SH2 domain protein 2A; ARHGEF11, Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) 11 and CD244, CD244 natural killer cell receptor 2B4.
