Promoter insertions frequently contain repetitive elements. (A) Enrichment of repetitive elements across recently inserted human promoters relative to the genome-wide expectation for insertions across promoter classes and expression profiles. The 95% confidence interval for genome permuted intervals is shown in gray, and the direction of transcription is shown by the arrows. The numbers of promoters which contribute to each enrichment are shown in the corresponding histograms in B. (B) Frequency of repetitive element families across recently inserted human promoters of the expression profiles, as in A.
