Fig. 3From: Assessment of piRNA biogenesis and function in testicular germ cell tumors and their precursor germ cell neoplasia in situKnockdown of PL2L60A in TERA1 cell line leads to transcriptional upregulation of transposable elements. a, Transcription level of PL2L60A gene and the following retrotransposons: full-length L1HS/L1PA2/L1PA3s, all Alu elements, AluYa5 subfamily. b, Fraction of TE-deriving small RNAs for full-length L1HS/L1PA2/L1PA3s, all Alu elements, AluYa5 subfamily. c, Chromatin modifications (H3K4me3 and H3K9me3) around all Alu elements, AluYa5 subfamily, and 5’UTR promoter of full-length L1HS/L1PA2/L1PA3. d, DNA methylation level around 5’UTR promoter of full-length L1HS/L1PA2/L1PA3 TEs. The graphs show mean and standard deviation across three biological replicates. P-value for two-tailed Mann-Whitney test is presented (n.s. – non-significant). scRNA – control scrambled RNA, siRNA – anti-PL2L60A siRNABack to article page
