Illustration of our predictive modelling approach where the H2A.Z histone variant has been used to separate genes into two classes. Categorising genes by the presence of promoter-localised H2A.Z removes context sensitivity in the regulatory role of H3K4me3; H3K4me3 in the presence of H2A.Z is often a hallmark of low expression (i.e. bivalent genes), whereas H3K4me3 is otherwise associated with active transcription. These conditional interactions are poorly handled by previous regression models
