Chordate TBPs. (a) Linear depiction of vertebrate TBP with domains indicated by different shading. (b) a.a. sequences of TBP proteins, with shaded bars above corresponding to the regions indicated in (a). Dots represent amino acids that are identical to the mouse sequence; gaps in alignment are exhibited by gaps in the presentation. The longer amphioxus N terminus is shown with the two extra a.a. underlined. For hagfish, variants containing 11, 12, and 13 Qs in the Q domain were isolated; 12 Qs are shown. (c) Oligonucleotide insertion-based polymorphisms in the aTBP 3′ UTR. Sequences for the three 3′-UTR mRNA isoforms that we identified are shown beginning at the stop codon (underlined). Nucleic acid positions for isoform number 1 are shown above the sequence in parentheses.
