From: Molecular and clinical analyses of 16q24.1 duplications involving FOXF1 identify an evolutionarily unstable large minisatellite

Figure 6

Cross-species visualization of syntenic sequences of the 8.6 kb minisatellite in 16q24.1. The figure presents the variation of motifs among different species and their conservation. Repeat sequences are represented as a row of multicolor strips and each strip maps to a particular group of motifs. The descending intensity of the color used to code the particular motif indicates the increasing number of differences from the motif corresponding to that color (mutational and deleterious differences are represented by upper and lower part of the strip, respectively). To increase the clarity of the figure, the human sequence was shortened to ~4.1 kb, and the rat and dog sequences are represented by one of the insertional translocation sequences (Table 2).
