Consensus Sequence for the 7-bp Spacer Sequences between CeRep25B Elements

BasePosition in spacer

Consensus (C/g)AA(c/g)TT(G/c)

[i] Numbers refer to percentage of bases at each position. The 7-bp spacer is represented here as half a palindrome, such that bases 1 and 7, which are normally complementary, are given the same weight. This consensus does not include spacers other than 7 bp.
