Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms Can Create Alternative Polyadenylation Signals and Affect Gene Expression through Loss of MicroRNA-Regulation
Figure 6
SNP expression distributions according to allelic imbalance direction.
SNPs in strong APA signal, with high GU level and high miRNA score, have a significantly higher logarithm of SNP expression for SNPs with imbalance towards APA allele (positive (P) log allelic ratio), compared to SNPs with imbalance towards non-APA allele (negative (N) log allelic ratio).
