Figure 1. Landscapes of human chromosome 17 and mouse chromosome 11.

Figure 1

Approximate alignments of ideograms of the two chromosomes are shown in the centre of the figure, with red lines showing the relationships between orthologous genes. From top to bottom for each organism, tracks show gene density (in genes per Mb), G+C content on a scale from 35–65%, and densities of LINEs (red) and SINEs (blue) (fraction of bases). The vertical dashed line represents the approximate boundary between the distal region of mouse chromosome 11, which has shared synteny with human chromosome 17, and the proximal region, which does not.
