Distribution of MFE values for long ncRNA molecules in chromosome 1 of the mouse. The histogram shows the distribution of MFE values for all 197,193,433 windows of size 2,000 nt in chromosome 1 of mouse, compared with the distribution of average MFE values of 339 known ncRNA molecules of length longer than 2,000 nt. For each ncRNA molecule, the average was calculated over all the 2,000 nt windows that are contained within the molecule. The two distributions were normalized to the same size. As can be seen, ncRNA molecules (green) have a tendency to the left; i.e. they have lower MFE values than the rest of the chromosome (gray).
