  1. Lengths of cDNA clones are shown according to the sequencing methods used. Clones sequenced by using the primer walking (PW) method are shown separately according to the number of primer walkings. Clones sequenced by using transposon shotgun sequencing (TPS) include those that were finished by the TPS method after being sequenced by the PW method.
  2. a Clones that were completely sequenced just by using universal primers (forward and reverse primers aligned to the vector sequence, and T25V primer).
