SPU_002633 (Strongylocentrotus purpuratus Genome assembly v.3.1)

The first 8aa of the original 92aa predicted by the GLEAN model (SPU_002633.1) against the Spur0.5 genome does not seem to be present in Spur3.1 - this resulted in truncation of the model such that the homeodomain was not intact. An 8aa encoding exon used in the NCBI model XM_778259.1 (GNOMON prediction) was added to the 5prime end of the model to restore the predicted homeodomain. The overlapping WHL model does not predict a homeodomain containing peptide.

SPU_002630 (Strongylocentrotus purpuratus Genome assembly v.3.1)

Hox6-8 family member designated Sp-hox8 (along with SPU_021309) in PMID: 17055477. The second (homeodomain-containing) exon of this model is near identical (98% at the aa level) to the second exon of SPU_021309 (Sp-Hox8). SPU_021309 occupies the position and is in the orientation within the Hox cluster described for Hox8 in PMID:16116652, whereas this model is between Sp-Hox9/10 and Sp-Hox11/13a and in the opposite orientation. This GLEAN prediction model spans scaffold gaps; its two exons are represented by separate WHL models.
