a Data are from the 1000 Genomes Project (127, 128).

b Data are from the TOPMED sequencing project (128, 129).

c tRNA score was calculated using tRNA-Scan SE (128).

d ARM indicates ARM-seq data suggesting expression (128, 130).

e CHIP indicates CHIP-seq hits for at least 3 of 4 core transcription proteins (RPC155, POLR3G, BRF1, and BDP1) (46, 129, 131133).
