Differential intron retention between groups biases a correct TEs differential expression analysis. (A) Volcano plot reporting the number of deregulated introns in IR-High vs. IR-Low samples from Geuvadis dataset. Significant results are reported in dark grey (B) Volcano plot reporting the number of deregulated TEs in IR-High vs. IR-Low samples from Geuvadis dataset. Significant results are reported in dark grey. (C) Genomic distribution of upregulated TEs (light grey) in IR-High with respect to IR-Low samples compared to the mean of 1000 randomizations (dark grey). Z-score are reported as numbers on the top of the plot. Error bars represent the standard deviation. (D) Volcano plot reporting the number of deregulated introns in DNMT-/- samples vs. WT control. Significant results are reported in dark grey. (E) Volcano plot reporting the number of deregulated TEs in DNMT-/- samples vs. WT control. Significant results are reported in dark grey. (F) Genomic distribution of upregulated TEs (light grey) in DNMT-/- samples, with respect to WT controls, compared to the mean of 1000 randomizations (dark grey). Z-scores are reported as numbers on the top of the plot. Error bars represent the standard deviation. (G) Volcano plot reporting the number of deregulated introns in SDE2 knock-down cells with respect to control cells. Significant results are reported in dark grey. (H) Volcano plot reporting the number of deregulated TEs in SDE2 knock-down cells with respect to controls samples. Significant results are reported in dark grey. (I) Genomic distribution of upregulated TEs (light grey) in SDE2 knock-down cells compared to the mean of 1000 randomizations (dark grey). Z-scores are reported as numbers on the top of the plot. Error bars represent the standard deviation.
