From: Transcriptome analyses of the human retina identify unprecedented transcript diversity and 3.5 Mb of novel transcribed sequence via significant alternative splicing and novel genes

Figure 4

Depth of coverage plots for the detection of novel splicing events in the human retinal transcriptome. The percent of annotated features detected for 10 million read increments are shown. For novel exons and alternate 3′ or 5′ splice sites, the coverage plots nearly plateau at 300 million reads, suggesting that 300 million sequence reads provides good depth of sampling for these features. The slope of the exon skipping curve suggests that a majority of the exon skipping events have been detected, but that additional events could be detected with greater depth of sequencing.
