The mRNA regions of 11 members of the mouse CA family identified by searching the Celera Mouse genome using the motif constructed based on CA family members in human. The first five lines were regions found byGFScan as they matched the human motif in the middle lines (R = A or G, Y = T or C, K = G or T, M = A or C, S = G or C, W = A or T, B = G or T or C, D = G or A or T, H = A or C or T, V = G or C or A, N = A or T or G or C). The bottom six lines show the other regions of the gene family that were missed byGFScan. The unmatched sites are in bold fonts. The underlined lower-case triplet represents the amino acid code that did not even match the protein motif of this family.
