  • Blocks were defined as clusters of segmental duplication with <100 kb of intervening sequence between duplicons. The largest 22 blocks which were assigned to a chromosome are shown. For a complete listing of all blocks, see http://ratparalogy.gene.cwru.edu. Begin and end coordinates within build 3.1, block size, and homologous regions are shown. Content was based on assigned Refseq, Rat mRNA, and ESTs within intron/exon structure within the UCSC browser. aBest sequence match of Cathepsin M is on chromosome 5. bEstimated 20 copies, but only five copies can be distinguished within the assembly.
