Sequence analysis of NICE-1 cDNA. (A) Nucleotide sequence of NICE-1 and the amino acid sequence deduced from its largest ORF. The putative initiation methionine codon ATG and the termination codon TGA are shaded gray. The polyadenylation signal AATAAA is underlined. (B) Comparison of the protein sequences of NICE-1 and xp5. Black boxes indicate identical, gray boxes indicate similar amino acids. Dashes indicate missing amino acids. Pairwise sequence alignment was performed athttp://vega.crbm.cnrs-mop.fr/bin/align-guess.cgi.
