A comparison of the somatic and sperm gnrh2r 5′-utrs and coded N-termini. a The sperm gnrh2r 5′-utr is longer and different from the somatic isoform. The sperm 5′-utr contains potential CREM (yellow), FOXL2A (blue) and Y-box (green) binding elements. Repeated core sequences are shown for putative EREs (underlined) and other elements (purple) that could serve as recognition motifs for unknown binding partners. Note the different start codon positions (ATG; green). A potential overlapping FOXL2A/Y-box element may exist near the start codon of the somatic gnrh2r. b The shorter sperm GnRH-II-R N-terminal exposes a N-linked glycosylation site (NLSL; bold) that is internal to the somatic isoform. Hatched lines indicate sequence continues downstream
