Intronic Alus Influence Alternative Splicing (original) (raw)
Figure 1
Bioinformatic analysis of Alu insertion within the flanking introns.
Conserved constitutively spliced exons were analyzed for the differences in the location of antisense and sense _Alu_s within the upstream and downstream introns (left and right panels, respectively). The x-axis is the distance in base pairs from the exon; the y-axis is the number of _Alu_s found within this distance. Antisense _Alu_s are marked in blue and sense _Alu_s are marked in red.
