Pairwise alignment between zebrafish PepT1a (Slc15a1a) and PepT1b (Slc15a1b) amino acid sequences obtained by using Clustal Omega and edited using GeneDoc 2.7 software. The predicted conserved PTR2 family proton/oligopeptide symporter signatures (in zebrafish PepT1a, motif 1—PROSITE pattern PS01022—amino acid residues 80–104; and motif 2—PROSITE pattern PS01023—amino acid residues 173–185) are colored in red. In the amino acid sequence, putative transmembrane domains are named I to XII. Weak predicted transmembrane domains (in zebrafish PepT1a, transmembrane domains VIII and X) are colored in gray
