genome annotation notes
20.SEPT.2024 Note that this gene page is missing a v10 Xla.L model. Synteny may support itga2b.2.L XB-GENE-5950168 as true itga2 homeolog- however we need to align the X. laevis gene models against the 2 genes in X. tropicalis to decide if these Xla genes should all be on the itga2b or itga2.2 gene page ( or split between both pages as they currently are) (cjz)
