Fig 1. IGV Illustration of the LINE-1 insertion in intron 1 of the MERTK gene.

Fig 1

A. The upper panel shows the Swedish Vallhund case, and the middle and lower panels represent two control WGS for comparison (a Labrador-Golden retriever cross and a Siberian Husky, respectively). The 15 bp duplicated sequence that is the LINE-1 insertion point is boxed. The CanFam 3.1 reference sequence (Boxer) is shown above and below the figure. B. Diagram to clarify the LINE-1 insertion in the Swedish Vallhund case. The 15 bp duplication is shown in orange, and soft-clipped bases in sequence reads at the start and end of the LINE-1 insertion (from the upper panel of A) are shown in dark and light blue, respectively. The line joining these two sequences represents the 6.401 kb of LINE-1 insertion sequence.
