(A) Sequence landscapes of human Chromosome 17. (i) Density of perfect palindromic motifs of at least 6 bp within 250,000 base windows; (ii) recombination rate from the deCODE map; (iii) G+C percentage in 20,000 base windows; (iv) known genes based on SWISS-PROT, TrEMBL, mRNA, and RefSeq; (v) CpG islands; (vi) mouse synteny; (vii) distribution of major repeat types (LINE, SINE, LTR, and Simple) in 250,000 base windows. (B) Mouse Chromosome 11 landscapes. (i) Palindrome density; (ii) genes; (iii) G+C percent; (iv) CpG islands; (v) human synteny; (vi) distribution of major repeats. The physical location of the shared MS haplotype in human and its syntenic region in mouse are shown as red horizontal bars.
