Data is for human genes; similar patterns were observed in mouse. Ubiquitous genes with a CpG island; tissue-specific genes with a CpG island; ubiquitous genes with no CpG island; and tissue-specific genes with no CpG island. Note differences in upstream C+G content, peak sizes at TATA box (-35 bp) and initiator positions, and downstream C versus G differences.
