Table 4.

Preferential conservation of uAUGs in mouse–rat stop-codon-bounded 5′-UTR alignments (5′-UTR<stop set)

Trinucleotide Triplet present in mouse, but not in rat (%) Triplet conserved in mouse and rat (%) Triplet present in rat, but not in mouse (%)
AUG 11 80 9
AGU 15 67 18
GUA 18 57 25
GAU 16 68 16
UAG 17 62 21
UGA 14 70 16

Fishers's exact test: 499 conserved uAUGs, 124 non-conserved uAUGs, 3262 conserved AGU/GUA/GAU/UAG/UGAs, 1675 non-conserved AGU/GUA/GAU/UAG/UGAs and P = 3.53 × 10−13.
