Fig. 2: Association between chromatin and gene expression.

A Accessible chromatin region (ACR) coverage (black) and methylation coverage (yellow) near the transcription start site (TSS). The red line indicates the TSS. B Comparison of mean expression (across 8 tissues) of genes associated with (within 2 kb of) accessible chromatin regions (open) and unassociated genes (closed). To avoid biases, an equal number (n = 10,473) of genes was randomly sampled without replacement for each combination of state and tissue. Letters indicate significant differences between groups based on a two-way ANOVA (tissue=0.011, state <2e-16, tissue:state=0.008) and followed by Tukey’s test. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
