Conservation of gene order and orlentation between human and Fugu
Human pairs classificationa | Consecutive pairs in humanb | Pairs with human-Fugu linkagec | Percent conserved pairsd |
|---|---|---|---|

a Classification of groups of gene-pairs. Antisense, pairs for which a sense-antisense relationship was observed in human cDNAs and ESTs. Same-strand, pairs of consecutive genes that are on the same strand and are therefore unable to possess sense-antisense relationship.
b Pairs of human genes that are consecutive on the human genome and have orthologs in the Fugu genome.
c Pairs of consecutive orthologous genes that preserved their gene order and orientation in human and Fugu.
d Percentage of linked pairs.
