Diploid changes in H3K27me3 and chromatin accessibility after Kdm6a KO in BC and CB clones. A UCSC Genome browser (GRCm38/mm10) view of H3K27me3 profiles in wt and Kdm6aΔE1 confirms a general increase across the entire Hoxb locus following Kdm6a KO. wt (black); KO cells (orange). B Box plots of average ratios of H3K27me3 read coverage in BC (Kdm6aΔE1) and CB KO clones (Kdm6aΔE2.5) versus wt at promoters (± 2 kb of the TSS) of genes with similar changes between the reciprocal crosses. Downregulated and upregulated genes exhibit expected increases and decreases in H3K27me3 (***p ≤ 0.0001). C Same analysis as in (B), but for ATAC-seq average ratios of read coverage. Downregulated and upregulated genes exhibit the expected decreases and increases in chromatin accessibility (***p ≤ 0.0001; **p = 0.011). D Example profiles of H3K27me3 read coverage in wt (black) and KO cells (orange) show an increase at promoters of downregulated genes (Tnik, Has2, Ephb6) in BC and CB KO clones.
