Fig. 7. The position of potential MYH13 regulatory regions based on phylogenetic
footprinting. Phylogenetic footprinting identifies several highly conserved
upstream and intronic regions between the human and mouse extraocular (EO) MYH
genes. Conserved regions are depicted by open boxes. The positions of exons 1,
2 and 3 are indicated as filled boxes. The mouse genomic sequence spanning the
myh13 gene (AC019008) was identified using Blast, and the exon boundaries were
determined using GeneQuest.
