Chromatin state analysis of age-related CpGs. The heatmap color-codes the hypergeometric overlap analysis between age-related CpGs (columns) and two groupings of CpGs (a) binding by Polycomb repressive complex 1 and 2 (PRC1, PRC2) defined based on ChipSeq datasets in ENCODE [64] and (b) universal chromatin states analysis [61], see the first two rows. The background is based on the 4239 mammalian CpGs that can map to the X. tropicalis genome (v9.1.102). The first column shows a bar plot that reports the proportion of CpGs bound by PRC2 that ranges from zero (RPC1) to one (PRC2). For each row (chromatin state or PRC annotation), the table reports odds ratios (OR) from hypergeometric test results for the top 500 CpGs that increased/decreased with age from meta-EWAS, X. laevis EWAS and X. tropicalis EWAS, respectively. The heatmap color gradient is based on -log10 (unadjusted hypergeometric P-value) multiplied by the sign of OR greater than one. Red colors denote OR greater than one in contrast with blue colors for OR less than one. Legend lists states based on their group category and PRC group. The y-axis lists chromatin states and PRC2 target sites. The left/right panel lists the results based on the top 500 CpGs with positive/negative age correlation. We display 16 universal chromatin states that show significant enrichment/depletion at P < 0.001 in any of the EWAS
