Intrinsic nucleosome positioning signals are more inhibitory and more variable in promoter regions than in open reading frames in S. cerevisiae. The distributions of the average and standard deviation of the nucleosome formation potentials within each of the promoter regions and open reading frames suggest that promoter regions in S. cerevisiae are specifically designed to inhibit nucleosome formation.
