Power spectrum of HOR domain in AC017075.8 computed by using quartic mapping (Eq. 6). (a) Low-frequency section f < 0.01 bp-1. Equidistant peaks above the background of noise are assigned consecutively by integers 1, 2, 3, ... The fundamental frequency of peak no. 1 is denoted by f1. Frequencies of the peaks no. 2, 3, ... are denoted by f2 = 2·f1, f3 = 3·f1, ..., respectively. (b) Medium frequency section up to f = 0.15 bp-1. Pronounced equidistant peaks above the background of noise are assigned consecutively by integers 1, 2, 3, ... The frequency of monomeric peak no. 1 is the HOR peak at frequency f16 = 16·f1 from Figure 1a). Frequencies of monomeric peaks no. 2, 3, ... are 2·f16 = 2·16f1, 3·f16 = 3·16f1, ..., respectively (in terms of fundamental HOR frequency f1 from Figure 1a). The noise level is such that the monomeric peaks at frequencies nf16 are clearly seen above the background.
