  1. (revcomp) indicates reverse complemented genes encoded on the opposite strand
  2. Gene positions are given relative to the start of the 12S rRNA
  3. * MURF5 start position is uncertain, so 5' end editing is assumed to create the start codon
  4. ** CR3 5' and 3' end positions are uncertain, editing pattern, start, stop codons are unknown
