Fig. 2 — a, The bowfin MHC on pseudochromosome 14 contains class I, class II and class III genes with orthologous relationships to the human MHC on chromosome 6 and zebrafish chromosomes 19, 16 and 15. Boxes represent genes or gene clusters of related sequences; gene placement is not to scale. Only those genes with bowfin orthologs are shown in human and zebrafish. Pseudogenes of non-MHC genes and RNA-coding genes are not included. b, Detailed lists of genes within each human leukocyte antigen (HLA) gene cluster in human (for example, William W. Ballard) indicated in a are provided. Asterisks indicate MHC or MHC-related pseudogenes. See also Supplementary Table 9.
