Fig. 2.

Location of Ago2-binding sites in the MCMV transcriptome. Distribution of Solexa reads (blue) on the (+) and (−) strands of the MCMV genome, in comparison with location of annotated viral miRNAs (red). Dashed boxes show a zoomed in view of two regions of the genome with high hit density clusters (Table 1): the m01 miRNAs (left) and a region of the genome downstream of the annotated ORF, m169 (right). The predicted binding site for miR-27 is shown in green.
