Figure 2

Complete nucleotide and predicted amino acid sequence of A. agrarius testicular CD46. The nucleotide sequences of the signal peptide (SP) to transmembrane (TM) domains are identical in both A. agrarius CD46 isoforms. Both isoforms are missing the serine/threonine/proline-rich (STP) domain. However, the A. agrarius CD46 isoforms have alternative cytoplasmic tails (CYT-A and CYT-B). The larger isoform has a 55 bp insertion (underlined) between exons 10 and 11, resulting in a longer cytoplasmic tail (CYT-B). A. agrarius CD46 mRNA sequences are available on the GenBank database [GenBank: FJ211179] and [GenBank: FJ211180].
