Cool+Synteny

Cool Synteny ﻿Synteny between species refers to multiple genetic loci from different species located on a chromosomal region of common ancestry. The bioinformatics tool used to create the synteny map of Vangl1 is ECR Browser and it is very cool. This graph is used to visualize and analyze Evolutionary Conserved Regions (ECRs) in genomes of sequenced species. The browser detects long sequences of alignments that are conserved and highlights them as ECRs, represented as colored peaks on the graph. Pink =ECRs Green =Transposons and simple repeats Blue = Coding exons Salmon = intronic regions Yellow =UTRs Red = intergenic regions
