Description of chromHMM states used in our analyses as given at https://egg2.wustl.edu/roadmap/web_portal/chr_state_learning.html. Boldfaced states were defined as “active transcription” states and used to set CpG-Gene priors

State no. Mnemonic Description

2 TssAFlnk Flanking active TSS
3 TxFlnk Transcr. at gene 5′ and 3′
4 Tx Strong transcription
5 TxWk Weak transcription
6 EnhG Genic enhancers
7 Enh Enhancers
8 ZNF/Rpts ZNF genes and repeats
9 Het Heterochromatin
10 TssBiv Bivalent/poised TSS
11 BivFlnk Flanking bivalent TSS/Enh
