Placental Implications of Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors in Gestation and Parturition

Table 1

Percentage of nucleotide and amino acid identity between the human, mouse, rat, and bovine PPAR sequences. No PPARγ3 alignment was carried out owing to lack of data on different species. The different sequences came from Ensembl and were aligned with Genomatix software.
