Figure 1aFrom: Extreme conservation of non-repetitive non-coding regions near HoxDcomplex of vertebratesSchematic representation of sequence convervation in the HoxD upstream region. Sequences that are conserved across vertebrates are shown as blocks. The conservation extends beyond theses blocks with in primates and rodents. EST's found in the database corresponding to this region are also shown. EST's mapping to CR-3 are BB838602 from mouse 8 cell embryo and BU 129154 from chicken 36 stage limb; and those mapping to CR-1 are AA620964 from human testis; BB332383, BB335110, BB334358, BB333569 from 6 and 10 days mouse neonate medulla oblongata and BU255316 from chicken 36 stage limb.Back to article page
