(A) LTR sequences adjacent to the putative C. albicans subtelomeric repeats. LTRs are represented by the boxes with different fill patterns. kappa LTRs that are truncated just prior to the 3′ end are indicated by the thin, vertical lines. Sequences to the right of the LTRs with some homology toCARE-2/Rel-2 are represented by the thin, continuous lines. Broken lines represent different sequences. A DNA transposon is depicted as a narrow box flanked by inward-pointing triangles. The direction of transcription of LTRs with associated internal regions is indicated. The thick black line represents sequences similar to theC. albicans CTA2 gene (GenBank accession no. AJ006637). The nearest recognizable upstream and downstream genes are indicated. The sequences of some contigs end within the region shown. (B) LTR groups in intergenic regions. LTRs are again represented by the filled boxes. ORFs are indicated by the boxed arrows, the arrows indicating the orientation of the ORF. The accession nos. of the sequences areas follows: Ca49C4, AL033503; Ca35A5, AL033396; and CBP1, L08824. The common scale for A and B is also shown. Note that Ca35A5 also contains MRS (Chibana et al. 1998) sequences but that these are >15 kb away from the sequences shown here.
