Proposed intrachromosomal rearrangements of SSC8 with reference to HSA4, (data taken from the Genome database, http://gdbwww.gdb.org/ and Laboratoire de Génétique Cellulaire,http://www.toulouse.inra.fr/lgc/pig/cyto/cyto.htm). Two inversions are postulated: a large inversion of SPP1–NPY receptor cluster, followed by a smaller inversion ofALB–NPY1R, NPY5R. The shading indicates the synteny between HSA4 and SSC8 as identified through bidirectional painting (Goureau et al. 1996).
