Figure 7

Absence of CanSINE insertion locus 174511 in the Puma. Loss of the target CanSINE insertion at locus 174511 and 68 adjacent nucleotides (bp 99–379) from P. concolor (N = 17) and replacement by an 18-nucleotide sequence (bp 81–98) similar in primary sequence to a CanSINE in the opposite orientation. Yellow-highlighted regions mark target site duplications and gray-shaded regions denote the A and B RNA polymerase III recognition sequences. The other puma lineage species, Acinonyx jubatus (N = 8) and P. yagouaround (N = 8) included the canonical CanSINE profile.
