Figure 4. Recombination Breakpoints during Chimpanzee-Specific ARMD Events.

Figure 4

Percentage of ARMD events found to have breakpoints at different positions along an Alu consensus sequence. The “hotspot” region is represented by a conserved 22-bp nucleotide sequence found in 634 ARMD loci (the first and second types of ARMD events) using WebLogo analysis (http://weblogo.berkeley.edu). The dashed line represents the average percentage (0.0035%) of breakpoints across the entire length of the Alu consensus sequence.
