Figure 7From: Homopolymer tract organization in the human malarial parasite Plasmodium falciparum and related Apicomplexan parasitesSpatial distribution of poly dA.dT tracts in proximal flanking intergenic regions of three Plasmodium spp. The schematics represent the distribution (bin size of 50 bases) of homopolymer tracts of N = 5, 10, 15 and 20 bases (see key for base and size of tract) in the sense-strand of proximal upstream and downstream intergenic sequences. Distance from the open reading frame (ORF) is represented on the X-axis. The frequency of each tract (Fobs) is represented on the Y-axis. The scale for distance and Fobs is represented in the key.Back to article page
