Figure 6.

Exon/intron boundaries for MSTN-2a and -2b genes. The 5’ and 3’ sequences of introns 1 and 2 are shown with exon/intron boundaries indicated by dashed lines. Splice site sequences are boxed and nucleotides consistent with the known consensus requirements for 5’ (RAG/GTRAGT; R = A or G) and 3’ (CAG/G) splice sites are in bold. Polymorphisms within each orthologous group are shaded.
