otogl

This is the community wiki page for the gene otogl please feel free to add any information that is relevant to this gene that is not already captured elsewhere in Xenbase

This Gene was originally annotated as otog. However, this gene on Chromosome 7 of Trop, and Laevis L/S is a recent duplicate with no synteny to the Human OTOG. As of 8/13/2018, a highly syntenic paralogue is present Laevis Chromosome 4.L. The Ch4L paralogue also has greater sequence similarity to human OTOG. The locus, including myod1 is poorly assembled for Tropicalis 9.1, and thus it is difficult to know what models. A new genepage will be generated

Dubaissi et al. made the correct gene naming designations in their 2018 paper, and Xenbase has made the changes to match their work.
