Inactivation of CTSE gene by insertion of interspersed elements. Genetic map of the CTSE locus in the platypus genome showing the disruption of exons 7 and 9 by interspersed elements. Top and bottom panels show a more detailed view of exons 7 and 9, respectively, indicating the nucleotide sequence of exons and the disrupting long interspersed element (LINE)2 and short interspersed element (SINE) elements. bp, base pairs.
