Appendix D-4 ChIP-seq Analysis

4.1 Enrichment across promoters and gene bodies

Frequency and distribution of HPTM peaks across gene bodies (a-c) and 5kb regions centered around transcription start sites (TSS) (d-f) in worker-destined larvae (WL) and queen-destined larvae (QL) at 192hpf. 95% confidence intervals are indicated.
