Mean nucleosome occupancy likelihood (NOL) scores for aligned sequences at the boundaries between introns and exons. Mean nucleosome occupancy likelihood (NOL) scores for aligned sequences at the boundaries between introns and exons. (a) Mean NOL scores for the regions +/−500 bp from the annotated upstream end and downstream end of the exons. For the central region +/−50 bp, nucleotide representation at each position is indicated by the size of the letters. (b) Mean NOL scores and associated nucleotide representations for the regions centered on the minimum value found within +/−50 bp of the annotated boundary between intron and exon.
