TRANSCRIPTIONAL UNITS AND GENE PAIRS 463ABCFigure 1. (A) <strong>Genom</strong>ic complexity at human 5q31: the case <strong>of</strong> 38I10.TU1. <strong>The</strong> solid horizontal line at top represents the genomic sequence.5cen is on the left. Arrows indicate the directions <strong>of</strong> transcription. <strong>The</strong> complete exon–intron structure is shown only for theTU, not for the known genes. Solid red boxes indicate antisense overlaps. <strong>The</strong> green vertical line indicates a putative bidirectional promoter.<strong>The</strong> magenta box indicates same-strand exon sharing. <strong>The</strong> region between the blue lines is the homology to the 10q21 myopalladingene within the 5q31 genomic sequence. <strong>The</strong> dotted red box highlights an exon <strong>of</strong> 38I10.TU1 which is cis-antisense to anupstream ORF homologous to the myopalladin amino terminus and absent from the known TTID sequence. <strong>The</strong> figure was derivedfrom our SeqHelp-aided manual annotation <strong>of</strong> genomic clones AC004021, AC073206, AC004820, and AC006084. <strong>The</strong> ESTs originallyused to define the TU are AL707026, BI755671, AI822067, AI822069, BF238994, BI462983, BF217923, BF977167,AA459981, N66667, N98951, AA805667, BX097833, and BG704696. To allow maximum detail, the drawing is not to scale, althoughrelative coordinates <strong>of</strong> feature boundaries along the 415-kb genomic interval are indicated. (B) A 1,580-kb interval <strong>of</strong> 5q31enriched in unconventional gene pairs. 5cen is to the left. Arrows indicate the direction <strong>of</strong> transcription. Known genes are in blue,EST-supported TUs are in orange, cis-antisense overlaps are in green, and putative bidirectional promoters are in red. To allow maximumdetail, the drawing is not to scale. (C) <strong>The</strong> distribution <strong>of</strong> unconventional gene pairs along human chr. 22. <strong>The</strong> horizontal lineat the bottom represents the chromosome. Each short colored horizontal line represents an island (a region enriched in a particular type<strong>of</strong> UGP, as defined by the presence <strong>of</strong> at least two UGPs and a distance <strong>of</strong>
