A comparison of sampled linker lengths distributions derived from cell population data that was sampled by one of two models: a model that recognizes nucleosome periodic sequence preferences (using the Nuc model, in green) and a model that does not (using the NucU model, in orange). The comparison was performed for four different NCFs. For each NCF, the distribution was similar in both cases, but the preference for quantized linker lengths was abolished when periodic nucleosome sequence preferences were removed. This demonstrates that preferentially quantized linker lengths distributions are mainly the result of the periodic sequence preferences of the nucleosome itself.
