Figure 1From: Identification of novel homologous microRNA genes in the rhesus macaque genomeMiRNA clusters in the human genome aligned with homologous regions of the rhesus, mouse and rat genomes. (A) Human cluster miR-371/373 is located on chr19: 58,982,741–58,983,839 (1099 bp, [27]), Rhesus has the similar cluster also located on chr19 in rhesus. This cluster is not well conserved in mice and rats. (B) Human cluster miR-367/302b is on chr4: 113,926,634–113,927,317 [27] and hosted in antisense orientation in a 684 bp region, in rhesus and mouse. There is no similar cluster in rat genome. (C) Human miR-17/92 cluster is located on chr13: 90,800,860–90,801,646(787 bp, [27]) and is highly conserved among in the rhesus, mouse, and rat genomes.Back to article page
