Figure 8.

Effects of orientation on mRNA expression levels (A) and correlation (B). In systems where genes are convergently and divergently oriented SC builds up in the region between the genes causing correlations and altered gene expression (see SM for compositional details). (A) Average expression levels in time for many single trajectories showing a clear difference in mean expression levels as gene orientations are changed. (B) The mRNA correlation function between the two genes shows correlations change as a function of orientation. Gene and barrier lengths of 1 kb and 10 kb were used respectively. Correlation function computation are contained within the SM and the simulation parameters are the same as Figure 3.
