Fig. 3. rRNA variants with population-stratified intraindividual AF.

Fig. 3

(A) Intraindividual AF of 28S rRNA sequence variant A2538G, by population (max Vst = 0.56). X axis has log2 scaling. (B to D) Tertiary structures of the ribosome showing strongly population-stratified variants (Vst > 0.5) with high intraindividual AF (>20%) in any individual analyzed that are located (B) in expansion segments (ES6S and ES3) in the surface near ribosomal protein eS6, (C) proximal to the binding site for ribosomal protein eS19, and (D) proximal to the binding site for ribosomal protein eL38. Ribosome tertiary structures [Protein Data Bank (PDB) ID 4V6X (67)] show rRNA (tan), ribosomal proteins (green), and key structural landmarks.
