^‡BLAST hits with highest number of repeats were selected.^§Precisely, there are 11 consecutive DxxGN(x)₄ repeats.^∗Three of the four repeats are part of the triple tandem DxxGN(x)₄DxxGN(x)₄DxxGN.^{For spacer regions (x)_n with 𝑛>7, a more specific search strategy is required to obtain significant hits; the repeat used for the Nematostella hit is DxLGN(x)₁₁DxLGN.
