Fig. 5. TEMRs disproportionately affect genes.

Fig. 5

a All 397 Alu TEMRs by variant type (shape) and Alu density (shading). b TEMRs disproportionately intersect genes (pie chart) affecting introns, exons, and gene-proximal regions that are often enriched with regulatory elements. c Regulatory and coding regions affected by TEMRs. Regulatory annotations were retrieved from ENCODE cCREs, coding regions and TFBS predictions from Ensembl Variant Effect Predictor (VEP). TFBS, transcription factor binding site; cCREs, Candidate Cis-Regulatory Elements; K4m3, DNase-H3K4me3; enhD, distal enhancer-like signature; enhP, proximal enhancer-like signature; prom, promoter-like signature; UTR, untranslated region; ENCODE, the encyclopedia of DNA elements; TEMR, transposable element-mediated rearrangement. d Example of TEMR deleting a stop codon in TRIM65 (bottom).
