Figure S1. Representation of the junction sites of the MSMB-NCOA4 transcripts. The MSMB-NCOA4 fusions are colored, numbered and arrowed from the original reference sequences. Line graphs show the position and cDNA sequence of the fusion points. Bottom-left panel shows the sequencing result of the 5’RACE assay for MSMB-NCOA4 1 fusion transcript, including MSMB exon 1, MSMB exon 2, partial of NCOA4 exon 2 and 5’RACE primer sites.

Figure S2. Comparison of several concensus published androgen response elements (ARE) sequences and the four MSMB-NCO4 region ARE-like motifs.

Figure S3. BiblioSphere Pathway view network of the MSMB gene co-citated with the NCOA4 gene. A network of 21 genes was identified by analysis of MSMB-related genes with the BiblioSpherePathwayEdition software package based on co-citations with transcription factors, functional co-citations, and co-citations with other genes in the network.The nodes represent the genes. The BLACK edges indicate co-citation of two genes in the PubMed database; the GREEN edges indicate the presence of a significant TFBS on the promoter of the given gene for the specific interacting transcription factor.
