Table 1 Comparison of MFE absolute values between stabilized, unaffected, and destabilized transcripts, both upstream to the TC and along the 3’UTR

From: The role of nucleotide composition in premature termination codon recognition

Compared transcripts		Dunn test			Effect size
Compared transcripts		Q value	Critical Q	Decision	Effect size
Stabilized vs. unaffected	Upstream to the TC	5.45	2.38	Reject H ₀	0.11
Stabilized vs. unaffected	Along the 3’UTR	4.71	2.38	Reject H ₀	0.09
Stabilized vs. destabilized	Upstream to the TC	1.17	2.38	Fail to reject H ₀	0.03
Stabilized vs. destabilized	Along the 3’UTR	4.36	2.38	Reject H ₀	0.14
Destabilized vs. unaffected	Upstream to the TC	3.30	2.38	Reject H ₀	0.07
Destabilized vs. unaffected	Along the 3’UTR	2.28	2.38	Fail to reject H ₀	0.05

H ₀ represents the null hypothesis of no difference between the two transcript groups. Effect size is defined as |A − 0.5|, where A is the common language effect size
