Dynamics of tsRNAs across regions. PAR (testis parenchyma), CAP (caput), COR (corpus), CAU (cauda) epididymis, and ejaculated sperm (SPZ). a Distribution across regions of isoacceptor read counts, showing specific expression patterns. For instance, Alanine, Histidine, and Threonine are mainly expressed in COR, while Arginine, Glycine, Isoleucine, and Methionine are mostly expressed in CAU. b Distribution across regions of tRNA-derived fragments showing that tRF5s are mainly expressed in CAU (35%) and SPZ (30%), while i-tRFs are mainly expressed in CAU (58%). tRF5 and tRF3: fragments aligned to the 5′ or 3’ end of the mature tRNA; 5′-tRHs and 3′-tRHs: 5’ or 3’ tRNA halves generated by a cleavage at the anticodon-loop; i-tRFs: internal fragments
