Relationship of information (bits) and percent GC, in (A) genomic regions of human sequences; and relationship of information (bits) and C content in (B) coding sequences of human genes, (C) first codon position for human sequences, (D) second codon position for human sequences; and (E) third codon position for human sequences. Open circles indicate theoretical fit to the information function.
