Figure 2.
Proposed secondary-structure models of the polymorphic regions of the pairs of mRNA alleles. The polymorphic bases are shown boldfaced and labeled SNP. The model building was assisted by the use of computer program mfold (M. Zuker, Washington University, St. Louis, MO). Only modeled regions supported by S1 and T1 mapping data are shown. (a) Proposed allelic structures of the polymorphic region of AARS mRNA. (b) Proposed allelic structures of the polymorphic region of RPA70 mRNA. The black bars highlight the highly accessible single-stranded regions.
