Figure 3. Comparison of the AS landscape in human reference annotations.Distribution of AS events that are not related to alternative transcription starts/polyadenylation sites and contain exclusively introns with canonical splice sites in different reference annotations of the human genome: EnsEmbl, RefSeq, and Gencode. Numbers represent the event count for each different structure and the proportions of the 4 simplest splicing patterns are colored as follows: exon skipping in blue, alternate donors in green, alternate acceptors in red and retained introns in yellow; the fraction of all types of more complex events is shown together in grey with the number of different structures observed there given in brackets. In general, the landscape of AS splicing is similar across the three datasets, with the biggest difference being a comparatively larger fraction of complex events in EnsEmbl.
