a Violin plot showing the differential gene expression (DGE) as log2FoldChanges in gene expression of Ctrl vs DomKD in Zld-dependent, H2A.Z positive and H2A.Z negative genes measured by GRO-seq. See also Supplementary Fig. 3j. n = 3 biologically independent experiments per genotype. b Violin plot of the log2FoldChange for Pol II occupancy (Rpb3 ChIP-seq) per unique promoter of Zld-dependent, H2A.Z positive and H2A.Z negative promoters. See also Supplementary Fig. 3i. n = 2 biologically independent experiments per genotype. a, b All groups are significantly different by pairwise comparison, Wilcoxon rank sum test with continuity correction, two-sided, p-value < 2.2e–16. Box plots (a, b) depict the median and the interquartile range (IQR) from the 1st to the 3rd quartile. Whiskers indicate the upper (Q3 + 1.5*IQR) and lower edge (Q1 − 1.5*IQR). c Motif enrichment analysis of core promoter elements in Zld-dependent (Zld-dep), H2A.Z positive (H2A.Z pos) and H2A.Z negative (H2A.Z neg) promoters. d Gene set enrichment analysis using Metascape56 showing the top 5 most significant GO terms per group (Zld-dep, H2A.Z pos and H2A.Z neg). Each GO-term is supported by the color scale in -log10 q-value and the fraction of observed genes presenting the proportion of observed genes in the respective GO term. Data representation was arranged as proposed by ref. 115. See also Supplementary Fig. 3l. c, d Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
