Expression of subtelomeric genes did not change in the absence of ClHst1.

Average normalized read counts are plotted for all genes within 40,000 base pairs of a telomere repeat sequence. These genes are located on contigs 2L, 4R, 5L, 7L, and 7R. For each gene, the distance of the start codon from the telomere repeat sequence is plotted on the x-axis. The dashed rectangle in the upper panel is expanded in the lower panel. Strains examined were wild-type (LRY2544; open boxes) and hst1Δ (LRY2623 and LRY2671; shaded diamonds).
