a Chromatin states are from ENCODE/Chromatin state segmentation analysis. Txn, transcription; devel., developmental. The regions overlapping low signal had the designation in the ENCODE database of heterochromatin (H3K9me3) or low signal but inspection of the ENCODE/Histone modifications dataset revealed that they did not contain H3K9me3 or H3K27me3 so they are identified as “low signal” chromatin segments in this table.
