Figure 4. Differential abundance of mRNA and ribosome footprints for adjacent genes in polycistronic units.

Figure 4

Panels are as described in Figure 2. Shown are the first genes in two divergent polycistronic transcription units, which are separated by a region with very low levels of stable transcripts. The direction of transcription is marked by arrows. The asterisk marks a coding sequence (CDS) encoding a conserved hypothetical protein that shows different translation efficiency (TE) in procyclic culture forms (PCF) and bloodstream forms (BF).
