Mauve Whole Genome Alignment of The Syntenic Blocks Surrounding GULO/GULOP: The reference species is the first species shown for each figure panel. LCB orientation is depicted by the placement of gene blocks over or under the black center line. Blocks with inverse alignment are shown below the center line. LCB blocks refer to regions of the genome between species which are similar and potentially free of genomic rearrangement. LCB height is proportional to the conservation of the specific block when compared to the reference genome. A Comparison of human and grey mouse lemur chromosomes 8 and 20, respectively. B Comparison of cat and dog chromosomes B1 and 25, respectively. C Comparison of mouse and guinea pig chromosome 14 and DS562856, respectively. D Comparison of pig and sheep chromosomes 14 and 2, respectively
