Figures
- Figure S1 Scatter plots of RNAseq analyses (from Table S2B) for all species, tissues, and X, Y, and autosomal gene family members. Female (F) and male (M) data are shown separately. Testes shown in blue, ovary shown in magenta, and all other somatic tissues shown in gray (see Table S2B for complete list). FPKM = fragments mapping to gene per kilobase gene length per millions of fragments in given dataset. Python script used to generate plots - betavioplot.py - is available at [28].
- Figure S2 Genomic locations of transposed autosomal genes. Screen shots from USCS Genome Browser [29] showing genomic locations of retrogenes and neighboring genes in various species to demonstrate synteny of retrogenes. (A) Mouse and rat Eif1a retrogene. (B) Human and orangutan EIF2S3 retrogene. (C) Rhesus and baboon EIF2S3 retrogene. (D) Marmoset and squirrel monkey EIF2S3 retrogene. (E) Mouse and rat Rps4 retrogene. (F) Opossum and wallaby RPS4 retrogene (only one of the two RPS4 retrogenes is shown because the second wallaby retrogene is located in a short sequence contig that contains no neighboring genes).
- Figure S3 Confirmation of UBA1 localization in New World monkeys. (A) FISH analysis on male marmoset (Callitrix jacchus) cells. Green signal corresponds to UBA1; red signal is specific to Y chromosome. (B) PCR analysis on male (M) and female (F) squirrel monkey (Saimiri sciureus) genomic DNA using two sets of UBA1Y-specific primers.
