Nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences of the cDNA encoding the duck VLDLR. An asterisk indicates the stop codon (TGA) and the polyadenylation signal sequence (AATAAA) is underlined and in bold character; YWXD repeats are indicated by a thick underline; serine and threonine residues that correspond to the O-linked sugar domain are indicated by double underline; the 23 amino-acid putative transmembrane domain is shaded; the FDNPVY sequence targeting the receptor to coated pits is marked by a wavy underline.
