(A) Human karyotype-wide mapping of the regions with human-specific (n = 164, red) and chimpanzee-specific (n = 224, blue) enrichment of H3K4me3 modifications in LCLs. Chimpanzee-specific regions in panel A are positioned on the human karyotype; however, some chromosomes are structurally different between these species. For example, chromosome 1 differs because of a pericentric inversion and heterochromatin content (B); chromosome 2 differs because of a chromosomal fusion in human and the presence of subtelomeric heterochromatic caps (C).
