NR0B1 and CAV1 GGAA-microsatellite sequence characteristics are visualized in panels A and B. The NR0B1 and CAV1 microsatellites are located −1.6 to −1.1kb and −2.0 to −1.7kb upstream from the transcription start site (TSS), respectively in the promoter/enhancer region. Using customized computer software, microsatellite sequences and pre-defined microsatellite characteristics were identified and quantified from the raw sequencing files. The NR0B1 GGAA-microsatellite is characterized by repeat segments separated by a single adenosine nucleotide, whereas the CAV1 GGAA-microsatellite is characterized by numerous repeat segments partitioned by a variable number of AGAA repeat motifs.
