Alignment of Parvulin genomic DNA sequences from different species. Genomic sequences from Homo sapiens, Bos taurus, Mus musculus and Xenopus tropicalis are aligned with the ATG start codon of Par14 common to all these sequences. The human sequence contains 5' to the Par14 coding sequence two additional in-frame ATG codons (highlighted in blue). The only other 5' ATG codon is present in the Bos taurus sequence; it is out of frame and followed by a TAA stop codon (both underlined). All in-frame stop codons are marked in red. Only the human sequence displays an extended open reading frame, both as QR and RS isoform (SNPs highlighted in grey).
