We first identified 1 224 colinear blocks in the quinoa genome, which corresponds to approximately 31% (16 864/54 438) of the total gene set.
The simulation was done by randomly picking the same proportion of genes out of the total gene list, assuming independence among the two sets in human and dogs.
378 NBS-encoding genes were manually verified after initial searching, comprising ∼1% of the total gene set, similar to the proportion found in other cereal genomes (Supplementary Table 16).
For instance, enhancers, by mediating expression within a specific tissue or cell type, are responsible for a subset of the total gene expression pattern.
The proportion of mobile elements in the ancestral Xist gene is relatively low, representing only 4.39% of the total gene length (Table S2).
Approximately 380 non-olfactory GPCRs are encoded by the human genome [1], corroborated by ca. 250 GPCRs in insect genomes [2], [3], making 1 1.5% of the total gene number dedicated to this receptor superfamily in invertebrates and mammals.
When considering the entire length of a targeted RefSeq gene among RISs found within genes, the RISs were found predominantly within the first 30% of the total gene length from the TSS (Figure 1C).
Hence, the tissue-specific circadian program in gene expression, representing up to 10% of the total gene transcripts in a given organ [13], mostly relies on local oscillators rather than systemic cues driven by the SCN.
This represented 25% of the total gene probe sets in the chip.
RNA interacting factors represent less than 1% of the total gene content in mammals.
By contrast, only ~3% of the total gene content of chromosome 4 is comprised of ves.
