Description

Coverage of mononucleosomal fragments, sense strand reads

The plot represents the coverage by putative mononucleosomal cores (147 base pairs) from micrococcal nuclease cleavage of C. elegans chromatin, using reads that mapped on the sense strand of the reference genome.

Coverage of mononucleosomal fragments, antisense strand reads

The plot represents the coverage by putative mononucleosomal cores (147 base pairs) from micrococcal nuclease cleavage of C. elegans chromatin using reads that mapped on the antisense strand of the reference genome.
