Figure 4

Syntenic analysis of the GATA4 gene. Sufficient genomic sequence is available to compare the sequence and the genomic positioning of genes across species, including genes in Xenopus. Syntenic analysis of the GATA 4 gene (in grey) from Human (Hsa), mouse (Mmu), rat (Rno), chicken (Gga) and frog (Xtr). Block arrows of the same color indicate the same gene. This type of analysis indicates the conservation of genomic positioning of genes between species. This figure was adapted from and analysis using the Metamorph program sponsored by the Joint Genomics Institute.
