Biased chromatin signatures around polyadenylation sites and exons

Core RNA-processing reactions in eukaryotic cells occur cotranscriptionally in a chromatin context, but the relationship between chromatin structure and pre-mRNA processing is poorly understood. We observed strong nucleosome depletion around human polyadenylation sites (PAS) and nucleosome enrichmen...
