Syntenic relationships in anole lizard, wallaby, and human. Gene positions (blue boxes) in vicinity of autosomal PRSSLYL in anole lizard and X-linked PRSSLX in wallaby, as well as syntenic region on human X chromosome, which is missing a PRSSLY homolog, are shown. Gene positions based on genome assemblies for anole lizard chr1 (Broad AnoCar2.0/anoCar2) and human X chromosome (GRCh38/hg38). The genome assembly for wallaby does not provide sufficient X coverage, but an X-chromosome-derived BAC sequence is available (accession number CU234131) that contains PRSSLX and upstream genes. Dashed lines connect homologous genes
