Number of 5' or 3' ends are shown for thresholds of 5, 10, 20 or 50 supporting tags. Shows the number of ends divided by the number of genes, and the ratio in brackets Note that at a threshold of 50, the number of genes with 3' end support is almost half that with 5' support. TSS, transcription start site; TTS, transcription termination site.
