Additional data file 2:
Supplementary Table 1 lists GO terms associated with mouse TE-poor genes. Supplementary Figure 2 shows analysis of murine MIR sequences associated with immune response genes. Supplementary Figure 3 shows gene-expression dependent variation in TE intronic abundance for human genes (SAGE data). Supplementary Figure 4 shows gene-expression dependent variation in TE intronic abundance for mouse genes (microarray data). Supplementary Figure 5 shows gene-expression dependent variation in TE intronic abundance for mouse genes (SAGE data). Supplementary Figure 6 shows intronic to intergenic relative frequency difference (calculated on gene flanks rather than entire intergenic regions).
