Observed versus expected number of LCRs in the different branches leading to an extant organism. Data is shown for LCRs enriched in K or R (in blue) and in A, G or AG (in red). The observed distribution of LCRs labeled in blue deviated significantly from the expected one in all three cases (Fisher’s exact test p < 10-3). The observed distribution of LCRs labeled in red deviated significantly from the expected one for human LCRs (Fisher’s exact test p < 10-3).
