Our results demonstrate that while accurate enrichment estimates can be obtained for individual repeat types and small sets of repeat instances, there are distinct combinatorial patterns of chromatin marks associated with major annotated repeat families, including H3K27me3/H3K9me3 differences among the endogenous retroviral element classes. }, keywords = {Animals, Base Sequence, CD4-Positive T-Lymphocytes, Cell Line, Databases, Nucleic Acid, Embryo, Mammalian, Fibroblasts, High-Throughput Screening Assays, Histones, Humans, Mice, Phylogeny, Protein Processing, Post-Translational, Repetitive Sequences, Nucleic Acid, Sequence Analysis, DNA}, issn = {1465-6914}, doi = {10.1186/gb-2010-11-6-r69}, author = {Day, Daniel S and Luquette, Lovelace J and Park, Peter J and Kharchenko, Peter V} }
