Table 4.
Total sites | Total substitutions | Substitutions per site | Substitutions involving CpGs | Proportion of substitutions involving CpGs | Substitutions per site sans CpG | |
Synonymous | 286,995 | 7,394 | 0.026 | 2,262 | 0.31 | 0.018 |
Noncoding | 3,767,771 | 68,602 | 0.018 | 8,212 | 0.12 | 0.016 |
Chi-Square comparing the relative proportion of substitutions involving CpG dinucleotides at synonymous and noncoding sites χ2 = 1,300, p < 0.001 and substitutions that did not involve CpG dinucleotides χ2 = 55.7, p < 0.001
