Polymorphic Alu in BCRL-E. A graphical representation of the repetitive DNA elements in BCRL-E as represented by two clones: cosmid 31f3 and BAC 1000e4 represented in two different genomic libraries. Hatched and filled boxes represent the various repetitive DNA elements. The Alu element subfamilies are indicated. (L2) LINE 2 element. The orientation of the Alu elements with respect to each other is indicated by arrows. The deleted Alu Sg element in clone 31f3 is indicated by dashed lines. The corresponding region in BCRL-D1 is also shown. The repetitive DNA classification is based on the results from RepeatMasker.
