Table 1. Intronic underrepresentation zones by TE class.

TE Class Human U-zone for All (bp)a Mouse U-zone for All (bp)a Human U-zone for FL (bp)b Mouse U-zone for FL (bp)b Human cutoff size of FL (bp)c Mouse cutoff size of FL (bp)c
SINE 100 100 100 100 >250 >100
LINE 50 100 2000 2000 >5000 >5000
LTR 2000 1000 5000 2000 >5000 >5000
DNA 50 100 2000 2000 >1000 >1000

The distributions of TEs were normalized by the overall G/C content preference of each TE class.

a

Underrepresentation zone based on distribution of all elements of each TE class.

b

Underrepresentation zone based on distribution of only ‘near full-length’ (FL) elements.

c

The cutoff size of full-length elements for each TE class was determined as slightly shorter than the average full-length elements as described in [1] and [2].
