Modifications of H3K27me3 near transcription start sites (TSSs). Profiles of the H3K27me3 indicated across the TSS for highly active, two stages of intermediately active (medium and low) and silent gene sets were shown for a S. aureus mastitis group and b healthy group of cattle. Each gene set includes 700 genes according to their expression levels in primary lymphocytes of cow peripheral blood. Here, 20-kb regions of 700 genes in each group were aligned relative to their TSSs (x axis). The y axis shows the detected read count per million mapped reads. c The box plots described the modifications of H3K27me3 on upstream 10 kb regions for each gene set for two groups of cattle
