  1. Columns 1–3: Detected sites and their positions with respect to annotated transcripts
  2. (UCSC genome browser, hg18).
  3. Column 4: Detected sites residing in regions marked as repeats by RepeatMasker as reported in UCSC genome browser tables.
  4. To be associated with a transcript, a site is required to lie between -5 kb and +5 kb of the annotated boundaries (transcription start site and poly-adenylation site). A complete list is available upon request to the authors. The smoothing used in SLM is σ = 200 bp [21].
