Figure 3. ADA2 is encoded by the CECR1 gene.
(A) Comparison of amino acid sequences of CECR1 protein (ADA2) from Homo sapiens (H. sap) (Entrez Protein database accession no. AAF65941) with a hypothetical protein from Gallus gallus (G. gal) (Entrez Protein database accession no. CAG31985) using the Stretcher program [41]. The peptides of ADA2, which were identical with the peptides derived from the CECR1 sequence, are highlighted (see Table 1 for comparison). Potential sites of N-glycosylation are shown in boldface. The signal sequences of the proteins predicted by SignalP 3.0 Server [42] are underlined. (B) Comparison of the amino acid sequences of the N-terminal region of ADA2 from G. gallus [20] and the amino acid sequence of a hypothetical protein from G. gallus (Entrez Protein database accession no. CAG31985). The signal sequence of G. gallus CECR1 is underlined.
