Abstract excerpt
Previous studies on human DNA have shown that the 3' poly(A) tracts of Alu elements may display considerable genetic polymorphism. To explore whether this marker type is generally applicable in mammalian genomes, I analyzed porcine SINEs. A database screening revealed 17 porcine sequences with si...
