<p>Progestin-dependent PR bound DNA fragments identified by ChIP-seq were aligned to the genome using Bowtie and peaks of binding were identified using ERANGE, with 0.27% FDR. (A and B) Location of PR binding regions relative to transcription start sites of RefSeq genes in (A) T-47D and (B) AB32 cells was determined using CisGenome. (C and D) PR binding region distribution by chromosome, ranked by gene number in (C) T-47D and (D) AB32 cells. (E and F) Percentage of progestin regulated genes with PR binding regions within a given distance from the TSS in (E) T-47D and (F) AB32 cells. Solid line - binding regions associated with up-regulated genes, dashed line - binding regions associated with down regulated genes. The median distances of up- and down-regulated genes to nearest TSSs are indicated.</p>
