Figure 3. DNA sequence validation of integration for the filoviral VP35-like sequence in voles of the genus Microtus.

Figure 3

The section of the intron common to rodent introns is highlighted in gray and the proposed filovirid-like insert is highlighted in red. Sequence comparisons (colored blocks are differences) between the PCR product (black bar) for the meadow vole (M. pennsylvanicus) and the genome assembly for the prairie vole (M. ochrogaster) are shown for (A) the shared intron of rodent genomes and (B) the proposed insert containing a filovirid VP35-like sequence in genomes of cricetid rodents.
