Figure 2

Boxplot comparison of polymorphic repeats from coding, 5'-UTR and 3'-UTR sequence. Median standard deviations (line through box) of all polymorphic repeats detected in coding, 5'-UTR, and 3'-UTR sequence. After controlling for sampling bias, coding and 5'-UTR standard deviations did not significantly differ from each other, but did significantly differ from 3'-UTR repeats implying that the 3'-UTR tolerates larger, more expanded repeats (P < 0.001).
