title: Two LINE 1 repeats in rat.
abstract: One LINE 1 repeat has been located 661 bp downstream from the last albumin exon and another approx. 10 kbp downstream from the last alpha-fetoprotein exon in the rat genomic DNA. The LINE 1 repeat following the albumin gene is truncated at its 5' end and is 1204 nucleotides long. The 5' end of the longer repeat downstream from the alpha-fetoprotein gene has not been determined. The two repeats have 95% homology with each other, with the exception of a short diverse 3' end sequence just preceding the putative polyadenylation signal.
