Genomic organization of genes near lysozyme g genes of representative vertebrate species. The relative organization and orientation of genes near lysozyme g genes in representative diverse vertebrate species. Species and chromosomes (or scaffolds or sequence accessions) are from Ensembl[34],[35] or NCBI[36] (see Additional files 1 and 2: Tables S1 and S2). Lysozyme g genes are labeled in red. The Anole lizard and Chinese soft-shelled turtle genomic neighborhoods are composed of two scaffolds that are likely adjacent. In Xenopus tropicalis, the lysozyme g genes are on two different, likely unlinked, scaffolds. See Additional files 1 and 2: Tables S1 and S2, for details on genomic locations. Gene sizes and distances between genes are not to scale. Arrowheads indicate direction of transcription. Gene symbols are: Lyg, lysozyme g; E1f5b, Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5B; Txndc9, Thioredoxin domain containing 9; Mrpl30, Mitochondrial ribosomal protein L30; Mitd1, Microtubule interacting and transport, domain containing 1; Tmem121, Transmembrane protein 121; Cox7a1, Cytochrome c oxidase subunit VIIa polypeptide 1; Pogk, Pogo transposable element with KRAB domain; Akap17a, A kinase (PRKA) anchor protein 17A; Pgrmc1, Progesterone receptor membrane component 1; zgc:66433, predicted zebrafish gene; Ids, Iduronate 2-sulfatase; Mcoln1a, Mucolipin 1a; Pglyrp2, Peptidoglycan recognition protein 2; Evi5l, Ecotropic viral integration site 5-like.
