From: Matrix association region/scaffold attachment region (MAR/SAR) sequence: its vital role in mediating chromosome breakages in nasopharyngeal epithelial cells via oxidative stress-induced apoptosis

The repeat elements identified within the AF9 SAR and the non-SAR regions. a The SAR region. The SAR region which is bordered by two BamH I sites is 10.2 kb in length (from coordinates 236,059 to 246,292). Green box represents the previously identified patient BCR which is indicated as BCR1. Yellow box shows the previously experimentally isolated MAR/SAR which is indicated as SAR1 [28]. Yellow arrows represent the potential MAR/SAR sites predicted by MRS in the present study. Green and blue arrows represent the primers used in the first and second rounds of nested IPCR, respectively. Black boxes show the repeat elements predicted by CENSOR program. BamH I (B), Kpn I (K) and Nde I (N) restriction sites are shown. b The non-SAR region. The non-SAR region which is bordered by two BamH I sites is 4.2 kb in length (from coordinates 71,116 to 75,277). Green and blue arrows represent the primers used in the first and second rounds of nested IPCR, respectively. Black boxes represent the repeat elements identified by using CENSOR program. BamH I (B), Hind III (H) and Xba I (X) restriction sites are shown
