0.97 RAG2 C-terminus decouples the indirect link between RAG1 and H3K4me3, selectively depletes RAG1 binding in the H3K4me3-driven Cluster 1 (Figure 5A) and allows for expanded RAG1 binding at thousands of new sites characterized by lower H3K4me3 density.
0.97 RAG1 binding sites reflects a RAG2-independent mode of interaction that depends, at least partially, on the non-core regions of RAG1, as manifested by depletion of RAG1 in the H3K27Ac-driven cluster of peaks in the absence of the non-core RAG1 regions.
0.96 RAG1 binding is driven by two distinct modes of interaction with chromatin: the first is driven by H3K4me3, promoter-focused and dependent on the RAG2 PHD, and the second is defined by H3K27Ac, enhancer-focused and dependent on 'non-core' portions of RAG1.
