Genomic context of 3 CGI-like fragments purified from cosmid 7. Occurrences of the dinucleotides CpG and GpC are plotted throughout this genomic sequence, which was assembled by overlapping two genomic fragments from the polyubiquitin gene with EMBL database accession nos.Z14958 and X58195. The positions of 2 CGIs and the start site for the polyubiquitin gene are indicated. The positions and GC characteristics of 3 sequenced cosmid 7 fragments, which contain CGIs, are shown below. (*) Characteristics pertain to the 504-bp sequenced end of this fragment as indicated.
