[i] Clones without a known function are not included. List is sorted according to separation distance. Minimum cutoff values used were >100 bp for length and >80% sequence identity. The maximum separation distance is 40 bp.

[ii] The Locus identification (Locus ID) number and description are taken from GenBank.

[iii] The percent identity (Ident.) between the two pairedAlu sequences = number of matched nucleotides/alignment length.

[iv] The alignment length (Len.) = number of matches + number of mismatches + total gap lengths.

[v] The total separation distance (Dist.) = b + c (see Fig.1).
