CESC and HNSCC integration breakpoints (±50 Kb flank regions) were grouped by the number of breakpoints per integration locus; single indicates one breakpoint and clustered indicates two or more breakpoints. Integration breakpoints from each subgroup were intersected with cellular enhancers and the frequency of overlap calculated. For the “All breakpoints,” “Single breakpoints (not clustered),” and “Clustered breakpoints” subgroups, each breakpoint was tested independently for its overlap with enhancer regions, regardless of whether it was part of a cluster or not. For the “Condensed clustered breakpoints” subgroup, the region spanning the most 5′- and 3′-breakpoints of an integration locus was used to test for the overlap with enhancer regions. For the “Combined single and condensed breakpoints” subgroup, the “Single breakpoints (not clustered)” and “Condensed clustered breakpoints” subgroups were combined for overlap analysis. The data were permutated 10,000 times to create an expected distribution of overlap. Bold font indicates significant p-values.

aA single integration breakpoint on chromosome Y was excluded from this analysis.
