Overlapping HTR2A (blue) and HTR2A-AS1 (green) exons in human (A) and mouse (B). a Antisense exons 7, 8, and 9 overlap human HTR2A exons 1, 2, and 3. Antisense exons 7 and 9 undergo alternative splicing, resulting in 5 unique exons that can overlap HTR2A transcripts. b Mouse antisense exons are situated similarly to the human antisense exons. Note: orientation of the mouse genes are reversed and mouse Htr2a exon 2 is aligned with human HTR2A exon 3 for comparison to the human genes. Arrows indicate the direction of transcription. Thin blue bars represent untranslated regions, with the hatched region of the human gene representing the extended 5’ UTR
