Within the Yq11.1/Yq11.21 transition region a specific genomic segment of ∼30 kb is framed by segmental duplications, but presents distinctive differences to its direct genomic environment.
Segmental duplication (tandem duplication of a genomic segment) is the most prevalent way to generate redundant genes [ 51].
All genes in this large genomic segment have the opposite orientation to most other vertebrate genomes studied.
A copy number variation (CNV) is a genomic segment larger than 1 kb that occurs in variable numbers in the genome.
The isolation and characterisation of the largest genomic segment of infectious salmon anaemia virus (ISAV) is reported.
An assay of the recombinants using sub-clones in combination with sequence analysis delimited the Bph15 gene to a genomic segment of approximately 47 kb on chromosome 4.
In this article, we report sequence information on two fragments of genomic segment S of viral isolates from the endemic area.
Additionally, we chose to fuse NCRs from the PB1 genomic segment and the M genomic segment to our reporter gene.
Additionally, the genomic segment harboring this variant directs tissue-relevant reporter gene expression in zebrafish.
The activity of the NCRs derived from the PB1 genomic segment lied in between.
It is also notable, that NCRs from the NS genomic segment, which encodes for non-structural proteins, showed the lowest activity whereas NCRs from the M genomic segment, coding for the most abundant structural protein M1, showed the highest activity.
