Fig. 2From: Upstream AUGs and upstream ORFs can regulate the downstream ORF in Plasmodium falciparum Average number of uATGs and uORFs in different protein coding genes. Average number of uATGs (a) and uORFs (b) found in the regions upstream of the start codons of var and other genes. Randomized upstream sequences of var and other genes were used as controls. Mean uATGs and uORFs were calculated in windows of 50 bases, up to 1200 base pairs upstream of the start codonsBack to article page
