  1. DHS DNase Hypersensitive site, TFBS transcription factor binding site, Ref reference for comparison in the column, Enhancers Phantom5 enhancers. Genomic context, Enhancers, DHS, and open chromatin information were extracted from the Illumina EPIC annotation file “IlluminaHumanMethylationEPICanno.ilm10b5.hg38”. Functional context information was extracted from the UCSC reference genome file “UCSC_hg19_refGene.bed”.
