Extended Data Figure 6

a, Intergenic regions are enriched in gibARs. Different sequence types are shown on the x axis and the y axis displays the fraction of gibARs and candidate regions annotated to the respective class. gibARs are significantly enriched in intergenic regions (P = 4.7 × 10−6) and significantly depleted in exons (P = 7.3 × 10−6). P values for each class were calculated with the Fisher’s exact test. Introns are comparably prevalent in candidates and gibARs, whereas in the UTR and flanking region, counts are too low to draw meaningful conclusions (data not shown). b, TreeMap from REVIGO for GOslim Biological Process terms with a Benjamini–Hochberg false discovery rate of 5%. Each rectangle is a cluster representative; larger rectangles represent ‘superclusters’ including loosely related terms. The size of the rectangles reflects the P value.
