Figure 6From: COMIT: identification of noncoding motifs under selection in coding sequencesMouse-human z-scores of motifs with experimentally verified ESS activity, which is deleterious for exons. Four of four of the Wang et al. [24] experimentally verified ESSs have negative z-scores, consistent with negative selection acting to remove them from coding regions. For the Zhang and Chasin [23] experimentally verified ESSs, nine of ten have negative z-scores (GTATTGTT, z = -0.006).Back to article page
