Multiple Alignment of TR domain from C. elegans. Standard TR properties are shown above the multiple alignment of a proline/glycine-rich TR domain in the C. elegans hypothetical protein sequence CE22309 from wormpep173 http://www.sanger.ac.uk/Projects/C_elegans/WORMBASE/. 'Positions' denotes the corresponding input sequence index range of this TR domain and 'Copy N' denotes copy number. The consensus error is 0.13 because nG = 99, cG = 29, mG = 583, and tot = 1595 (see Consensus Building in Appendix). Gap characters are shown in red to emphasize the high indel content of this TR. Below the dashed double line is the consensus sequence followed by the consensus error string shown in blue. Columns of the alignment with 100% character identity have no symbol in the consensus error string. The symbols ':' and '*' denote a column with greater than or equal to 50% character identity and a column with less than 50% character identity respectively.
