Introns in <i>Mlxip</i> and <i>Mlxipl</i> genes are at homologous locations.

Abstract

<p>Alignment of human and mouse ChREBP, MondoA, and Mlx (encoded by <i>MLXIPL</i>, <i>MLXIP</i>, and <i>MLX</i>, respectively) protein sequences and <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i> Mondo (encoded by <i>Mio</i>) protein sequence with locations of introns, and phases indicated. Protein sequences were aligned with Clustal Omega. Locations of introns are indicated by ^ with the number referring to the phase of the codon interrupted by the intron. Introns at near identical locations, and of the same phase are boxed, with solid boxes indicated very similar locations, while dotted boxes are similar.</p
