Figure 1

Schematic representation of the 3' region of the SP100 gene. (a) SP100-HMG splice variant showing the 14 amino acid joining region and the portion of the HMG1L3 retropseudogene that has been incorporated into the protein. (b) Genomic structure of the last two exons and the last intron of SP100-HMG. The HMG1L3 insertion sites are indicated. Also shown are the locations of the PCR primer sequences PICauf1 (1), a1PICdo (2), and SP100-HMG3 (3). (c) Detail of the 900 base PICauf1/a1PICdo amplicon present in Old World monkeys showing the location of the Alu sequence.
