Figure 6From: Implications of high level pseudogene transcription in Mycobacterium lepraeRibosome binding strength of M leprae genes. Graphs show the relative ribosomal binding strength of M. leprae genes. Panel A shows free energy values of the binding between the 3' sequence of the 16S rRNA and the region upstream of pseudogenes and ORFs. The position of the start codon of the genes is denoted by Pos (0). Lower values indicate stronger binding strength. Panel B shows the RBS ratios of M. leprae pseudogenes and their corresponding M. tuberculosis homologs.Back to article page
