DNA-Encoded Chromatin Structural Intron Boundary Signals Identify Conserved Genes with Common Function

Figure 3

Boxplots of genomic characteristics for several ontological categories in comparison to the entire genome. Boxplots of intron sizes and numbers of exons are shown for the whole genome (WG), ATP binding (AB), ATPase activity (AA), helicase activity (HA), and motor activity (MA) across the 5 species of interest. Values that differ significantly from the whole genome are indicated with an asterisk.
