The table lists human protein-coding different strand nested gene structures that are also found in coelacanth and/or zebrafish but are absent in clawed frog (X. tropicalis) or chicken genomes. The genes were selected (as described in the Methods and Table S3) from a previously published list of human nested genes [12]. The missing host or nested genes are marked in bold. Nested genes that encode LRR-superfamily proteins are underlined.
