Comparison of MHM transcripts. Alignment between the sequence of the EST clone RJA001B07 (787 nt) and the Z-linked MHM-region sequence AB046698 (2332 nt), showing a 141-nt region with 98% sequence similarity (blue boxes). The yellow fields are the regions of BLAT alignment to the Z-chromosome (RJA001B07: chrZ:9,422,551-9,422,655 and AB046698: chrZ:9,422,028-9,423,285) in the first assembly of the chicken genome [19]. Also indicated are the approximate locations of the two primer pairs used in the real-time PCR to confirm the higher expression in females of each MHM transcript.
