Fig. 6: Genomic patterns of the ACGT target motif.
From: Methylome evolution suggests lineage-dependent selection in the gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori
a Overlap of motif patterns between representative populations of H. pylori. All genomes included in this analysis were compared in a pairwise fashion to determine how many motifs are present at the same genomic coordinates in each pair and the average between populations is presented. Sections of the Venn diagram are colored from yellow to blue according to the number of overlapping motifs. b Character-state transition rates between ACGT and its most frequent allelic variants. The direction of character-state change is displayed from the x-axis to the y-axis. c Distribution ACGT motifs located within coding sequences according to their reading frames and represented by a box plot. The median is indicated by the central line across the box. The lower and upper hinges represent the 25th and 75th percentile, respectively. The ends of the lower and upper whiskers represent the minimum and maximum data points, respectively. d Effect of state transition between ACGT and ATGT/ACAT according to the reading frame (Syn: synonymous; Non-syn: non-synonymous).
