Fig. 1From: Protein length distribution is remarkably uniform across the tree of lifeDistributions of protein length, GC content, and gene length (x-axis in logarithmic scale), for selected model eukaryotic species (light green), bacterial and archaeal species (blue). Summary statistics are shown as lines at the bottom of the distribution: red lines indicate the first quartile, median, and third quartile, and the blue line indicates the mean. An alternative representation with protein length on a logarithmic scale is available in Additional File 2: Fig. S1Back to article page
