Figure 1

Schematic alignment of zenk sequences on array. Five partial zenk cDNAs are spotted on the 20 K microarray. Here they are aligned against the derived contig ("mRNA") and its predicted protein coding sequence ("CDS"). Canary e12 cDNA [Genbank: EF050732] is the original songbird zenk sequence [20]. Zebra finch ZZF23 cDNA [Genbank: EF052676] was isolated using the canary sequence to probe a zebra finch cDNA library (C.V. Mello et al., unpublished). The three clones beginning in "SB..." are three independent cDNAs that did not form contigs and were spotted independently on the array; sequence extent is based on raw EST sequence. Scale bar in kb from putative 5' end of mRNA.
