The column entries are the numbers of genes in which the respective alternative splicing events can occur. AltA, alternative acceptor site; AltD, alternative donor site; AltP, alternative intron position (both acceptor and donor sites are different); ExonS, exon skipping; IntronR, intron retention. The Overall and Ratio columns give the number and fraction of genes with any type of alternative splicing, respectively.
