The predicted amino acid sequence of the skate GABA transporter was aligned with mouse GAT-1-4. The numbers in red (left of '100' diagonal) are the percentage of identity calculated by dividing the number of identical amino acids by the total number of amino acids. Numbers in blue (right of '100' diagonal) are the percentages of similarity that include identical amino acids and conserved substitutions.

The introns in the SGAT-1 gene were obtained by PCR from the skate genomic DNA and the intron positions were determined by sequencing. The exon sequence is shown in the upper case and the intron sequence is shown in the lower case. The intron positions in the SGAT-1 coding region were compared with that in the human and mouse GAT-1 genes as shown in the rightmost columns.
