The frequencies (percentages) of the five types of cancer- and normal tissue-specific alternative splicing.

Abstract

<p>(a) 16 types of human cancer and 17 normal tissues, (b) the average values between tumors and normal tissues. The five colors indicate the five types of tissue-specific alternative splicing: cassette alternative exon, alternative 5′ splice site, alternative 3′ splice site, intron retention, and mutually exclusive alternative exons. Yellowish regions indicate over 30% of the frequencies.</p
