Figure 4. — Example of an extended UTR bridging the gap to a distant full-length cDNA. Screenshot from the Riken genomic element viewer (http://fantom3.gsc.riken.jp/) displaying both full-length cDNAs and CAGE tags (transcription starts) for gene Tmem33. The stop codon position is indicated with a yellow triangle. The bottom red strip represents the RT-PCR validated transcript (5′ end is not determined). We located a putative poly(A) site for gene Tmem33 at around 5.2 kb from the stop codon, supported by a single full-length cDNA (highlighted). The 2.35 kb gap between this unique cDNA and the longest Tmem33 transcript caused Riken to predict two independent transcription units (TUs) for these entities.
