Duxbl genes and pseudogenes. a) Overview of Duxbl pseudogenes and intact rodent Duxbl. Intact genes in colour, pseudogenes in grey. Dotted lines contain small gaps/contig holes in assembly. Asterisk next to species name indicates lack of synteny information. Star above exon = stop codon. b) Mapping of partial primate Duxbl deletion. Genomic nucleic acid alignment based on LAGAN in mVISTA of orangutan, human and chimpanzee Duxbl pseudogene loci. Conserved sequences shown as peaks, with Duxbl exons marked by dark bars. Gorilla was not included due to incomplete assembly.
