OsFH1
Full-length cDNA can now be assembled from empirically sequenced fragments - see TIGR gene assembly TA19690_4530.
OsFH2
Full-length cDNA is available- see TIGR gene assembly TA24102_4530.
OsFH3
Partial cDNA can now be assembled from empirically sequenced fragments - see TIGR gene assembly TA18880_4530, indicating a possibility of a variant gene product lacking N-terminal domains.
However, the hypothetical protein sequence (AAL31655) derived from the original annotation of the corresponding genomic BAC (AC079179) contains highly conserved N-terminal domains that are missing in the current TIGR annotation. Therefore, a "hybrid" version of cDNA (arrow) and protein sequence has been derived from alignment of genomic sequence and several available predictions (entry data here, alignment here):
OsFH4
No cDNA has been isolated so far for this gene, and the TIGR prediction agrees with the original genome annotation (predicted protein AAN05367 from clone AC091666).
OsFH5
The hypothetical protein sequence (BAC55695) derived from the original annotation of the corresponding genomic BAC (AP004275) spans two TIGR loci and corresponds well to the canonical structure of a ClassII (D) formin.Partial cDNA can now be assembled from empirically sequenced fragments - see TIGR gene assembly TA14448_4530, indicating a possibility of a variant gene product lacking N-terminal domains. Therefore, a "hybrid" version of cDNA and protein sequence has been derived by combination of the TIGR versions (ends) and the original prediction (middle).
OsFH6
Partial cDNAs of two splice variants can now be assembled from empirically sequenced fragments - see TIGR gene assembly TA19904_4530 and cDNA AK100610. However, a hypothetical longer splice variant cDNA and protein corresponding well to the canonical structure of a ClassII (D) formin can be constructed as well (arrow):
OsFH7
The hypothetical protein sequence (BAD19266) derived from the original annotation of the corresponding genomic BAC (AP004094) is partially supported by cDNAs, spans two TIGR loci and corresponds well to the canonical structure of a ClassII (D) formin. Therefore, we prefer the original annotation to the TIGR version.
OsFH8
Full-length cDNA is available- see TIGR gene assembly AK121042.
OsFH12
No cDNA has been isolated so far for this gene, and the TIGR prediction disagrees with the original genome annotation, splitting the gene in two. Moreover, both versions lacking some highly conserved parts of FH2. Therefore, a "hybrid" version of cDNA (arrow) and protein sequence has been derived from alignment of genomic sequence and several available predictions (entry data here, alignment here):
