Fig. 2

Shows conservation of the IL1B 5′-upstream region compared to the human sequence in region [−687_ + 297] (hg19 chr2:113594193–113,594,801). The height of the conservation plot at each position represents the number of nucleotides conserved in a window of 100 nucleotides centered on that position. The pink rectangles at the top of the plot represent the evolutionary conserved regions, which are defined as regions of 100 nucleotides with at least 70% identity. Blue boxes represent the IL1B exons, while yellow boxes indicate the IL1B 5′-UTR. Intragenic positions are highlighted in red, or in green when corresponding to transposable elements and simple repeats. Overview from the ECR Browser [37]
