CpG methylation of the 4qA allele of FSHD1 and Ctrl ESCs.
Bisulfite sequencing of the DUX4 4qA alleles of Genea Biocells' three Ctrl and three FSHD1 ESCs. (A) Bisulfite sequencing showing CpG methylated (red) and unmethylated (blue) CpG sites in DNA molecules amplified from the DUX4 4qA or 4qAL alleles for each ESC line. Each row represents CpG sites along the DUX4 4qA DNA sequence. Note that if contracted and non-contracted alleles from an ESC line both have a 4qA haplotype, the DNA clones would be recovered and sequenced from either allele in roughly equal proportions and would result in a bimodal distribution of DNA sequences with hypo- and hyper-methylation, as seen for Genea 049 and 050. Because Genea 096 showed neither hypomethylation nor clear bimodality (excluding one outlier clone, an unlikely split of sampling from two alleles with equal probability), a 4qA-L methylation assay was also performed for this sample, as this haplotype can also be permissive for FSHD1. Neither the 4qA nor the 4qA-L assay of Genea 096 showed evidence of a hypomethylated allele, consistent with the lower level expression of DUX4 in this ESC line (Figure 6A). (B) Graphical representation of the CpG methylation data in (A) where each dot represents the % CpG methylation of the sequence of one DNA clone. Teal are Ctrl and orange are FSHD1. Data are shown as mean ± SEM for each cell line.

Differential expression for pairwise cell type comparisons from edgeR analysis.
For each of the 15 pairwise comparisons (shown in separate tabs), genes with differential expression (in either up or down directions) were ranked by p-value if the P-value < 1.0E-06 and |log2(FC)| > 1. The table includes columns for p-values, log2(FC), log2(CPM), QL F-test (F), and false discovery rate (FDR) from edgeR, and several columns for gene annotations.

Top 20 Up and Down GO terms (BP, CC, MF) and KEGG pathways for pairwise cell type comparisons.
For each of the 15 pairwise comparisons (shown in separate tabs), the goana and kegga functions in edgeR were used to rank the top 20 Gene Ontology (GO) terms from each of the biological process (BP), cellular component (CC) and molecular function (MF) branches of GO, and the top 20 KEGG pathways, based on overrepresentation among the DE genes. Terms comprising N ( < 500) genes are sorted by P.Up and P.Down. For each term, the top DE Genes.Up and Genes.Down (ordered by P Value) are listed, up to a maximum of 30 genes.
