Conservation of exons 13, 14, 16 and PWR during evolution. (A) Alignment of exons 13, 14, 16 and 31 nucleotides sequences of human, chimp, dog, rat, mouse, chicken, zebrafish and fugu FAK genes. Alignment gaps are indicated by dashes. Sequences identical in all species are highlighted in dark. Fugu and zebrafish genomes contain two FAK genes (FAK1 and FAK2, and FAK1a and FAK1b, respectively). Exon 13 was found in only one zebrafish and fugu FAK gene, whereas exon 16 was found in only one zebrafish FAK gene. (B) Alignment of the amino acid sequences of boxes 28, 6, 7 and 3 (PWR) of the same species as in A. Alignment gaps are indicated by dashes. Amino acids identical in all species are highlighted in dark.
