Classification of EhSINE2. 119 EhSINE2 copies were extracted from the E. histolytica HM-1:IMSS database (length > 400 bp and similarity >70% with the consensus EhSINE2) and analyzed for IR; 111 could be categorized according to number of internal repeats, represented by the bars in Blue. The rest were excluded due to having a single copy in the database or having only a fraction of an IR in the SINE2. Correlation of TSD length and number of IR. Out of 119 SINE2s analyzed, TSDs were found in 92 cases (77.31%). All 92 examples with a TSD were analyzed for the number of IRs and average TSD length was plotted against IR number, represented by the bars in Red.
