From: Directionality of point mutation and 5-methylcytosine deamination rates in the chimpanzee genome
Rates of CpG transition, GpC transition, and 5mC deamination varied with local GC content and among the genomic regions. (A) Rates of CpG→TpG/CpA per CpG dinucleotide (solid line) and GpC→GpT/ApC per GpC dinucleotide (dashed line) in the SNP flanking sequences (length category 101 nt). In CpG islands, the rates at GC content bin 0.325 were not calculated due to the insufficient number of SNPs. (B) 5mC deamination rates, measured by the difference between the rates of CpG transition and GpC transition in A. (C) Plot of log10(5mC deamination rate) versus SNP GC content.
