Bundle title: The bundle title is present usually only if the bundle is known to represent a transcript. The title briefly describes the function of the protein encoded by the transcript, if it is known. Characterized transcripts will list known function; uncharacterized transcripts with strong homology to characterized transcripts will indicate a putative function or gene family; transcripts with no known function will often contain non-functional descriptive text only; putative or predicted transcripts will usually indicate that the transcript is not confirmed in some descriptive manner. These titles are taken from UniGene and often are somewhat subjective.

Minimal position: Lists the most likely minimal (min) position to which the bundle
is localized. Note that a min position defines the smallest region of
overlap shared by localizations of all elements comprising the bundle.
Information about how min positions are calculated can be found here. In some instances a bundle min cannot
be defined, in which case the minimal position is listed as "none"
and only the max position is shown with a value. These positions are defined
using the genomic sequence positions determined for each element. In essence,
a min position identifies a region of sequence that all elements representing
the genomic object share in common.
The first line refers to the sequence range that defines the bundle min position. In the example, the bundle SDR1 has a minimal position defined as between base pairs 12,208,925 and 12,209,060 from the chromosome 1 p terminus. This indicates that all of the elements in the SDR1 bundle include this stretch of sequence. The second line indicates the corresponding cytogenetic position for this region.

Maximal position: Lists the maximum (max) possible position to which the
bundle is localized. A max position is defined as the combined genomic
region to which any of the elements comprising the bundle localize. Information
about how max positions are calculated can be found here. These positions
are defined using the genomic sequence positions determined for each element.
In essence, a max position identifies the combined region of sequence
that any of the elements representing the genomic object may have.
The first line refers to the sequence range that defines the bundle max position. In the example, the bundle SDR1 has a maximal position defined as between base pairs 9,194,835 and 14,296,882 from the chromosome 1 p terminus. This indicates that for any portion of this region, one or more of the elements in the SDR1 bundle is localized there. The second line indicates the corresponding cytogenetic position for this region.
