Figure 3.
Pairwise alignment of rat and human Urotensin II receptor (GPCR14). Each transmembrane (TM) helix predicted by TMPredict program is shown with grey shading. Highly conserved residues in Family A receptors are displayed in boxes with Ballesteros numbers. The residues in bold face are important amino acids for UT-II binding. Length= 389 amino acids, Score= 489 bits (1125), Expect=1e-137, Method: Composition-based stats. Identities= 266/328 (74% in whole sequence, 89% in TM helix). Positives= 290/328 (88%), Gaps= 2/328 (0%).
