(a) UCSC representation of the 3’UTR of CYP20A1_Alu_LT, marked is region of Clone1-UTR-CYP20A1 and miRNA sites. The 23 exonized Alu elements present in the 3’UTR are also shown. Arrows represent the orientation of exonized Alus (b) Schematic of sponge activity of Alu rich 3’UTR of CYP20A1_Alu_LT and its impact on GAP43 gene expression. The indirect effect of 3’UTR of CYP20A1_Alu_LT on GAP43 due to its miRNA sponge activity is shown by dotted arrow
