The enzymes required to breathe fire (BFi2) is expressed in throat tissues of dragons from the Known World (comprising Westeros, Essos, Sothyros, and Ulthos) at various times during their life cycles. A test very similar to DNase I hypersensitivity is conducted on embryonic (E) and adult (A) throat tissue samples of Valeriyan, Ice and Sea dragons. In the analysis, a radioactive label is attached to one end of each chromosome fragment, and the samples from each tissue are exposed to DNase I to determine if regions of BFi2 are DNase I hypersensitive. The content from each sample is then separated by gel electrophoresis and the results are shown below.

1. The enzymes required to breathe fire (BFi2) is expressed in throat tissues of dragons from the Known World (comprising Westeros, Essos, Sothyros, and Ulthos) at various times during their life cycles. A test very similar to DNase I hypersensitivity is conducted on embryonic (E) and adult (A) throat tissue samples of Valeriyan, Ice and Sea dragons. In the analysis, a radioactive label is attached to one end of each chromosome fragment, and the samples from each tissue are exposed to DNase I to determine if regions of BFi2 are DNase I hypersensitive. The content from each sample is then separated by gel electrophoresis and the results are shown below.
