Figure 3.

Multiple sequence alignment of mitochondrial DNA sequences of 62 primates and one Dermoptera (G. variegatus). Shown are primate orthologs of human mtDNA positions 2608–2624 (framed is the nucleotide at position 2617). Stem, Loop, Stem columns indicate the mtDNA sequence corresponding to the stem-and-loop structure of 16S rRNA around position 2617. The full vertebrate sequence alignment is in Supplemental Figure 5.
