Gene content on the two Fugu contigs. Genes are named according to the nomenclature for the orthologous human gene. Human mapping locations are shown in italics after the gene name. For genes mapping to Hsa20, locations are shown as positions on bacterial clones in the Hsa20 contig map. In contig 1 there is a clear break in shared synteny with human 20q, whereas in contig 2 synteny with 20q is conserved along the entire contig length. If a gene is duplicated inFugu, or the Fugu gene has already been named elsewhere, the corresponding Fugu gene name is shown in italics. The relative positions of the duplicated Fugu genes are indicated by arrows.
