Figure 7. Vertebrate conservation and multi-species sequence alignments for the short form 3′-UTR of the TGF-β₁ gene at 19q13.2 as well as miR-633 and miR-744 genomic loci.

(a) multiple seed sequence recognition sites for miR-633 and miR-744 in the TGF-β₁ 3′-UTR. The alignment features sequences from: hu, human; ch, chimpanzee; rm, rhesus macaque; ba, baboon, ma, marmoset; mo, mouse; el, elephant; xe, frog. (b) variable conservation across pre- miR-633 and pre-miR-744 sequences with alignment data from the same species. In each figure, seed sequences are highlighted by horizontal bars for miR-633 (grey) and miR-744 (black).
