Functional diversification of kir7.1 in cichlids accelerated by gene duplication.

Gene - 1 Sept 2007

Watanabe Masakatsu, Hiraide Kazue, Okada Norihiro

Abstract excerpt

Mutation in the inward rectifier potassium channel gene, kir7.1, was previously identified as being responsible for the broader stripe zebrafish skin pattern mutant, jaguar/obelix. An amino acid substitution in this channel causes a broader stripe pattern than that of wild type zebrafish. In this study we analyzed cichlid homologs of the zebrafish kir7.1 gene. We identified two kinds of homologous genes in...
