Figure 1.

ANU265 clones that carry RIME1 repeats. ANU265 clones are numbered in bold in the first column and the RIME1 repeat consensus sequence is shown in bold on top row of the alignment. Positions in the ANU265 sequences of the initial and final bases in each alignment are given in the 5' and 3' columns, respectively. Partial alignments represent RIME repeats covering either the end (filled diamonds) or the beginning (filled triangle) of the established sequence. The two palindromic structures of RIME1 are shaded in gray. Internal inverted repeats are shown in matching colors. Gaps (marked with red hyphens) and single-nucleotide deletions (inverted red triangles) were introduced for optimal alignment. Base mismatches are colored in red. Arrows mark clones that encode putative proteins. N, any base; Y indicates C or T, R indicates A or G.
