Figure 2: Alignment of subtelomeric regions of chromosomes 1, 3, 6 and 11.
From: Genome sequence of the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum
MUMmer2152 alignments showing exact matches between the left subtelomeric regions of chromosome 6 (horizontal axis) and chromosomes 11 (red), 1 (blue) and 3 (green), illustrating the conserved synteny between all telomeres. Each point represents an exact match of 40 bp or longer that is shared by two chromosomes and is not found anywhere else on either chromosome. Each collinear series of points along a diagonal represents an aligned region. SB, subtelomeric block; TARE, telomere-associated repetitive element.
