The global alignment of the mouse finished sequence NT_002570 against the region found by BLAT anchors revealed conserved coding and non-coding elements not found by the BLAT program. The anchoring scheme is sensitive enough to provide the global alignment with the correct homology candidate. The location found for this mouse finished contig on the human genome, June 2002 (hg12/ncbi30) is chr20:42974590–42993423.
