Genomic organization of the <i>flp</i> genes.

<p>The extent of the deletions are indicated below by the red bars. The peptide coding regions (not to scale) are indicated by blue bars; one peptide coding region may extend over two exons. Flanking sequences and sizes of the deletions are as follows: <i>daf-10 flp-1(yn2)</i> (CTAAATAATTTTAAAACGTA/CTTACCTTTCAAAGTTTGCA) [<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0135164#pone.0135164.ref011" target="_blank">11</a>], <i>flp-3</i> (GCACAGCTGGAGGGTGGAGG/CAAACGATTACTATTGTGTC; 2632 bp deletion), <i>flp-4</i> (TTCTGAAAAACTTTTAATAA/AGCTCGCCGAGCCGAGTCTTG; 928 bp deletion) [<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0135164#pone.0135164.ref031" target="_blank">31</a>], <i>flp-6</i> (CAAAAAAGCGAGTCGGGGGT/TCGTTTTTCACTTATTGAAC; 1662 bp deletion), <i>flp-8</i> (AGATAAATCTCAGAACAAGC/ATAATTTTGGCGTCATAGTT; 1414 bp deletion), <i>flp-9</i> (ATAATAATTATCTAGAAATA/GTACTTTCGATTCGATTCCT; 1881 bp deletion), <i>flp-10</i> (GCTTATTCTGCGTTCATCA/GTAAAAACTATCTTAATAAT; 1884 bp deletion), <i>flp-12</i> (CACTAGACATAGCTCTCCATG/TCAATTTGAATTTCTGAATA; 1732 bp deletion), <i>flp-18(tm2179)</i> (CGGAGCACTCCCGGCATTTC/GAGCGCCCCACGAAGCAAACAACAC; 1286 bp deletion) (Wormbase), <i>flp-19</i> (CACATTTCACCGGTTTGTCG/TACTTGAACCGAAATTTACT; 1946 bp deletion), <i>flp-20</i> (TTACTTTTAATACGTCTAAT/CCATTCATTTTAAAAGAATT; 1343 bp deletion), <i>flp-21(pk1601)</i> (</p><p>GAAAAAAGAAGAACCTACAT/TCAGAAAAAAGTAAACTAAT</p>; 464 bp deletion) [<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0135164#pone.0135164.ref014" target="_blank">14</a>], and <i>flp-21(ok889)</i> (GAGCAGTAGATTTTTCAAGT/TTCCTACCAAAGCCGAGCCGA; 1786 bp deletion) (Wormbase).<p>
