Potential secondary structures formed by single-stranded PATRR sequences. Eight-hundred nucleotides containing each PATRR at the centre are analysed by mfold to demonstrate the putative stem-loop structures formed by intrastrand basepairing. The most prominent stem-loop structure for each sequence is formed by every PATRR sequence, whose length is indicated in parentheses. With regard to the PATRR22-pal and the PATRR22-quasi, sequences around the centre are indicated. The lowercase sequences are PATRR11-derived sequences in the junction fragment of the t(11;22) that provide the SnaBI site used to ligate the proximal and distal arms of the PATRR22-derived sequence. The PATRR22-pal is a perfect palindrome, whereas the PATRR22-quasi is a quasipalindrome having a spacer of 9 nt at the centre and four mismatched bases at 23, 27, 28 and 29 nt away from the hairpin tip.
