The UCSC Genome Browser was used to capture the genomic sequence between and including the Nkrp1a and Clr-b genes. Genes were identified by Lasergene, using short homology searches of B6 Nkrp1/Clr cDNAs. The locations of various kinds of repetitive elements were revealed with RepeatMasker and are shown (see key). Advanced Pipmaker was used to construct a scale diagram of the exons and a PIP vs. itself (single coverage). Genes and exons are marked in yellow and green, respectively. The sequence is demarcated below the plot in kilobases. Arrows show gene orientation, and the common gene name followed by the official gene name (in parentheses) or suggested official name are indicated above the arrow. Obvious pseudogenes are denoted with a ψ.
