Mitochondrial DNA Variability within Uromastyx ornata philbyi (Agamidae: Squamata) from Southwestern Saudi Arabia
Figure 3
Secondary structures of the inserted sequences found between and genes in U. o. philbyi (represented by east Sarawat sequence). The first 128 bp insert can assume alternative secondary structures either with a moderately stable and long stem region (a) or with a clover-leaf structure for the second gene and a stable stem-and-loop structure (b). The next bolded 42 bp also assume a stable stem-and-loop structure. Heavy-strand sequences are shown, and numbers refer to the corresponding positions in their light-strand sequences of Figure 2. Bars in stems represent Watson-Crick base pairs, and dots stand for wobble G-U pairs for RNA.
