Amplification of taste receptor T2R1 gene of Takifugu fasciatus.
Relative expression of T2R1 in different tissues of Takifugu fasciatus, A, gill; B, spleen; C, heart; D, lips; E, skin; F, tongue.
The similarities of T2R1 amino acid sequences between T. fasciatus with other animals. Note: the amino acids are numbered along the left and right margin. The transmembrane domains are underlined.
Phylogenetic tree revealing the relationship of T2R1 in T. fasciatus relative to other T2Rs family members of other species. Note: the horizontal branch length is proportional to amino acid substitution rate per site. The numbers represent the frequencies (%) with the tree topology presented was replicated after 1000 iterations.
