Fig. 1From: Molecular cloning and expression patterns of the cholesterol side chain cleavage enzyme (CYP11A1) gene during the reproductive cycle in goose (Anas cygnoides)Alignment of the deduced amino acid sequence of goose CYP11A1 with those of the other birds species. Additional Genbank accession numbers not mentioned elsewhere are as follows: chicken(Gallus gallus,NM_001001756.1), turkey(Meleagris gallopavo,XR_118355.1), penguin (Aptenodytes forsteri,XM_009278905.1), crested ibis(Nipponia Nippon, XM_009469738.1), peregrine(Falco peregrinus, XM_005239431.1), rock pigeon(Columba livia, XM_005513042.1), budgerigar(Melopsittacus undulates,XM_005145776.1), saker(Falco cherrug,XM_005437500.1), Tibetan ground-tit (Pseudopodoces humilis, XM_005521726.1), Zebra Finch(Taeniopygia guttata, NM_001127374.1) and Medium ground finch(Geospiza fortis, XM_005430050.1) The asterisk indicates residues that are identical among all birds. Dashes indicate gaps introduced to facilitate alignment. Arrows highlight the p450 domain, the steroid-binding domain (I), and the heme-binding region (II)Back to article page
