Figure 9

Spatial distribution of nucleosome occupancy and poly dA.dT tracts over sequences immediately flanking P. falciparum ORF. Plots of the spatial distribution of observed frequency (F_obs, right Y-axis) of N = 5 (10 base bins) length poly dA (red line) and poly dT (blue line) tracts over 400 bp centered over translational start (A, upstream-exon) and stop (B, exon-downstream) sites. Nucleosome occupancy (black dotted line) is reported as a log₂ ratio of FAIRE to MAINE sequence reads (left Y-axis) where an increase in the ratio indicates regions relatively deficient in nucleosome occupancy.
