Figure 1. Intronic distributions of the four major TE classes in human (normalized).

Figure 1

The distributions of all (A) and full-length (B) intronic TEs in human are shown separately. The sizes of the U-zone observed for each TE class are specified in Table 1. In both A and B, the x-axis shows a series of predefined intronic regions based on the distance from a TE to the nearest exon. The y-axis represents the standardized frequency of TEs at each intronic region and is normalized by G/C content for each TE class. The red dotted line indicates the expected distribution of TEs based on random computational simulations. Error bars are standard errors derived from the total number of corresponding TEs (sample size) in each bin.
