Table 2 The number of occurrences of a ligand receptor pair within a given distance of each other (in Mb) for the real genome compared with 10000 randomized genomes. In this instance the first three results columns refer to the dataset excluding the two examples identified by Cooper.

From: Unusual linkage patterns of ligands and their cognate receptors indicate a novel reason for non-random gene order in the human genome
