Abstract

The most recent mouse, rat, dog, chimpanzee, and human genome sequence was searched to compile a near-complete repertoire of V1R genes for each species. It was found that dog, human, and chimpanzee had very few intact V1Rs compared to more than a hundred intact V1Rs in each of the rat and mouse genomes.
