Explanation about the files

These files are the output of our script with two lines added at the begining to put the characteristics of the human intron which are looking homologous for.

After these lines, the files contain a first part with all the species where homologous genes were searched, whether they were found or not and their location.

The next part has the results from exonerate. It is shown the name of the sequence (which is part of the name of the species followed by the name of the gene), the start and end of the intron, the donor site (with four nucleotides within the exon and ten within the intron), a sequence which contains the branch and acceptor sites (with 40 nucletotides within the intron and 5 in the exon; it is longer to be sure that the branch point is in there), the termini of the intron and the strand where it was found.

Finally, results from geneid can be found as well as the branch site. In this part, there is also the name of the sequence, the type of the donor site and its score and the same for the acceptor site, followed by the branch site sequence and the position of the branch point. This position can be considered as the distance between the third letter of the sequence, starting to count by the end, and the first nucleotide of the next exon. If any of the sequences does not have a donor site recognised by geneid, the acceptor site and the branch point are at the end of the file, if they exist.
