Identification of Evolutionary Hotspots in the Rodent Genomes

Table 3.

Observed (Expected) Fractions of Hotspots in RefSeq Genes, RefSeq Exons, and ESTs


Species

Mouse

Rat
RefSeq genes 39% (18%) 17% (8%)
RefSeq exons 2% (1%) 2% (0.3%)
ESTs
73% (37%)
49% (18%)
  • The smaller expected fractions for rat are due to the fact that the rat databases are less complete.
