Table 1.

Average* nucleosome binding affinities for TE classes (families)

TE class (family)a Avg nba ± s.e.b
L1 0.849 ± 6.8e-4
LINE other 0.805 ± 7.6e-4
Alu 0.510 ± 5.2e-4
SINE other 0.789 ± 7.0e-4
LTR 0.807 ± 7.9e-4
DNA 0.802 ± 9.8e-4
a

TEs are broken down by class (family) using RepeatMasker. The L1 and Alu families are considered separately from all other LINEs and SINEs respectively. All LTR and DNA elements are considered together as classes.

b

Average nucleotide binding affinities ± standard errors.

*

All differences are statistically significant (ANOVA F = 2.8e4, P≅0).
