G-Quadruplex DNA Sequences Are Evolutionarily Conserved and Associated with Distinct Genomic Features in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Figure 3
The conservation of G4 DNA motifs as a function of the loop length threshold.
The number of G4 DNA motifs identified in S. cerevisiae increases as maximum loop length limit is increased (blue line). More than half of the motifs are conserved in at least one other species at each loop threshold (green line). The number of motifs conserved in all sensu stricto species also increases as longer loops are tolerated (red line).
