Figure 9

Average length of the 3′ untranslated region (UTR) of 10 mRNA sequences per species for Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (alga), Blastocystis hominis (protozoan parasite), Schizosaccharomyces pombe (fission yeast), Arabidopsis thaliana (Arabidopsis), and Mus musculus (mouse). Note that the 3′UTR length varied greatly among species, but there is no mixture between the poly(A) site signature motifs presented in Figure 8 and stop codons.
