Figure 3From: Distribution of miRNA genes in the pig genome Comparison of the position of miRNA genes in the intergenic regions and host genes (number of gene pairs and linear correlations are given in parantheses). A) Positions of miRNA genes in intergenic space. The space between flanking protein-coding genes was standardized to 1 and the position of each intergenic miRNA gene was mapped on the standardized space. B) Positions of intragenic miRNA genes in gene space. The space between start and end of a host gene was standardized to 1 and the position of each intragenic miRNA gene was mapped on the standardized space.Back to article page
