Table 3. Structural characteristics of locus types.
| FL-cDNA length (median) | ORF ratio (median) | Locus length (median) (a) | Variation of locus length | Number of exons (average) (b) | Exon length (median) (b) | Intron length (median) (c) | Ave.nunber of mapped FL-cDNA clones | |
| FL-AE | 1540 | 66% | 3354 | Rich | 5.3 | 154 | 153 | 22.3 |
| FL-NAE | 1173 | 21% | 1727 | Poor (short) | 2.4 | 247 | 251 | 4.1 |
| CDS-AE | - | - | 3173 | Rich | 5.8 | 147 | 162 | - |
| CDS-ANE | - | - | 1643 | middle | 3.9 | 199 | 186 | - |
a
: For the calculation of locus lengths, we used the maximum lengths of individual loci.
b
: Exons shorter than 10 bp were excluded from the analysis. Thus, the definition of an exon in FL-cDNA loci differs from that in TIGR OSA1.
c
: Introns shorter than 10 bp were excluded from the analysis. Thus, the definition of an intron in FL-cDNA loci differs from that in TIGR OSA1.
