Identification of DNA sequences encoding intact irisin in porcine genome. (A) Amino acid sequence alignment of murine, human, and porcine irisin protein. *: indicating same amino acid; •: indicating missing amino acid. (B) DNA sequence encoding the missing 43 amino acids corresponding to the human genome compared to the NCBI database for porcine FNDC5. The missing sequence is divided into two parts, missing part 1 and missing part 2. *: indicating same base; •: indicating missing base. (C) Alignment of the missing part 1 DNA sequence encoding the missing 43 amino acids in human genome with DNA sequence of porcine FNDC5 from the NCBI database after adjustment of 10 bases up 5′ end. *: indicating same base; •: indicating missing base.
