Overall structure and gene arrangement of the chicken region. Arrangement of genes (boxes) is illustrated at the top of each panel. Horizontal arrows or arrowheads above or below the genes indicate directions of transcription. Upward arrowheads indicate positions of CpG islands and tandem repeats. Observed/Expected ratio of CpG dinucleotide per 100 bp and G+C content per 100 bp are graphically shown under the gene arrangement.
