-
↵a Other repeats include, but are not limited to LINE-1, LTR, and DNA transposon families.
-
↵b Owing to the often interrupted structure of non-Alu repeats, this number is likely to be an overestimate.
-
↵c Non-repeats refer to sequences other than interspersed complex repeats and include unique sequences as well as low complexity repeats and satellites.
