Fig 2. Comparative analysis of RBP7 sequence and protein expression in avian species.

Fig 2

A) Comparison of RBP7 amino acid sequences of chicken (GenBank accession number XP_417606.4), turkey (XP_003212313.1), quail (corresponding to KP026122), human (NP443192.1) and mouse (NP071303.1). An epitope sequence detected by a custom RBP7 antibody is underlined from residue 73 to 83. B) Western blot analysis of RBP7 protein expression in chicken, quail and turkey tissues, respectively. α-tubulin was used as a loading control. SF: subcutaneous fat, AF: abdominal fat, TM: thigh muscle, PM: pectoralis major muscle, H: heart, Lu: lung, Li: liver, Ki: kidney, Sp: spleen, Br: brain, Int: intestine.
