Figure 5

Genomic organisation of the huntingtin gene from B. floridae , H. sapiens and C. intestinalis. Introns are represented by broken lines and exons by coloured boxes. All of the corresponding introns are indicated as black/blue dashed lines. The base-pair length of each exon is indicated inside the boxes. The numbers above the coloured boxes represent the exon numbering. Bracketed red numbers correspond to the common intron phase; the different intron phase is indicated by bracketed black numbers. Black dots label the exons coming from scaffold_613 and an orange dot shows the exon deduced from scaffold_378. Only the protein coding sequence was considered for the reconstruction of the genomic organisation. The diagram is not drawn to scale. See text for further details.
