From: GC-compositional strand bias around transcription start sites in plants and fungi
GC-skew around TIS in fungal genes. The mean GC-skew values in regions 1.0-kb upstream and 0.5-kb downstream of TIS in the genomes of six species of fungi were calculated using the sliding-window technique (window size = 100 bp; shift size = 1 bp) for 9,432, 11,407, 10,054, 9,872, 5,825 and 4,305 loci in A. nidulans, F. graminearum, M. grisea, N. crassa, S. cerevisiae and S. pombe, respectively.
