Alignment of the consensus 3′-tail sequences of DeuSINEs with that of the corresponding LINEs. “RTase” denotes the reverse-transcriptase encoded by LINEs. (A) The 3′-tail sequences of AmnSINE1, LmeSINE1a, LmeSINE1b, SINE3, SINE3_IP, and SacSINE1 (blue boxes) are similar to that of zebrafish CR1-4_DR LINEs. (B) The 3′-tail of OS-SINE1 (purple box) is similar to rainbow trout RSg-1 LINE. Both CR1-4_DR and RSg-1 LINE sequences were obtained from Repbase Update database (Jurka 2000).
