Fig. 2From: Multiomics analyses identified epigenetic modulation of the S100A gene family in Kawasaki disease and their significant involvement in neutrophil transendothelial migrationMethylation variations of significant CpG markers within the putative promoter regions. By referring to the RefSeq 41 annotation, we can determine a CpG marker’s distances to transcription start site (TSS) of a gene’s transcript. Then, we can also determine the relative locations of CpG markers within the putative promoter regions, which are the genomic regions ranging from − 5000 bp to + 3000 bp of a transcript’s TSS. a, c, e For each CpG marker, the X and Y axes denoted its distance to TSS and its methylation variation, respectively. Using the two arrows, the promoter was split into three sub-regions, the left, the core and the right sub-regions. The methylation variations (average ± S.D.) of the CpG markers located within each sub-region were labeled. The sample sizes for sub-figures a, c, e were 205,306, 393,023, and 385,840, respectively. b, d, f The box plots and t test demonstrated that the CpG markers within the core sub-region varied more than those within the other two sub-regions (P < 2.2E−16 for the six comparisons)Back to article page
