* Figures in parentheses represent number of bases
** Reiterated sequence were present in multiple copies within the cellular 
   gene. Most of the matching sequences  were also repetitive with the BLASTN
   program identifying somewhat similar sequences in  multiple cellular genes. 
*** Partial homology to human CMV is present. Specifically, 81 of the first 95 
    bases match to human cytomegalovirus (GenBank accession number X17403) at 
    position 153,273 to 153,367 (p =1 e-12)
