Figure 1 Alignment of the AluJ consensus sequence (reverse complement) and NM_152410 PACRG exon 5. The predicted exon is shown in uppercase type and boxed, the flanking intronic sequence is shown in lowercase italic type, and the predicted splice acceptor/donor consensus sequences are indicated in boldface type.

Figure 2 Analysis of the structure of the PACRG transcript in human testis. Agarose gel electrophoresis of reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction amplification of PACRG. The amplification products using primers corresponding to both NM_152410 and AF_546876 (set 1 to set 8) are shown. The final three lanes use primer sequences specific for exon 5 of NM_152410 (set 9 to set 11). The fragment sizes of the DNA molecular weight marker are indicated in basepairs.
