Figure Legend Snippet: All panels are based on RNA-seq analysis from . (a) Dot plots for fold changes of all genes in cells co-transduced with BAP1 and the indicated ASXL1 constructs. (b) Volcano plots of genes differentially expressed in cells co-transduced with BAP1 and the indicated ASXL1 constructs. DEGs (Probability > = 0.85) are in red (higher is 10RA than in 1-590) or blue (lower in 10RA than in 1-590). (c) Venn diagrams showing overlap between genes that, compared to co-transduction with BAP1 and 1-590, were downregulated by BAP1 and control vector (salmon), and genes that were downregulated by BAP1 and (1-590) 10RA (cyan) in each repeat (Probability > = 0.85). P values by Fisher’s exact test. (d-f) The most significantly enriched Biological Processes (d), tissue/cell-specific gene signatures (e), and transcriptional regulatory networks (f), for the 297 genes that were upregulated by ASXL1 (1-590) but less efficiently by 25RA in both repeats, as defined in . By Metascape. P values by two-sided hypergeometric test. (g) Expression levels (normalized read counts in RNA-seq) of indicated myeloid inflammatory response genes in in cells co-transduced with BAP1 and the indicated ASXL1 constructs.

Figure Legend Snippet: All panels are based on RNA-seq analysis from , but focused on transposable elements (TEs). (a) Heatmap showing relative expression levels of 103 differentially expressed TEs in cells co-transduced with BAP1 and the indicated ASXL1 (1-590) constructs, including 62 and 41 TEs that were upregulated and downregulated by 1-590 than control, respectively. TEs in pink boxes were upregulated by co-transduction with BAP1 and 1-590 compared to BAP1 and control vector, but were upregulated less efficiently by BAP1 and (1-590) 10RA.
