Answers.Text: "you're just misreading it." this part I got it the gene got two different binding sites. So if i have to find if the accessibility correlates to the expression shall i consider both of them such as taking the mean ?

  I have done the differential accessibility analysis then annotated the region with chipseeker.
  
  my output for one of the many region and question regarding this

  So the same region is marked as Distal Intergenic and Promoter. Next I have the same comparison RNA seq expression data. So now my objective is to find those genes+region which are expressed as well as deferentially accessible.
  
  So for example here in this case in RNA seq data there is only one `SPON1 gene` so if I have to show it associated region how to put that,shall I consider promoter or the distal intergenic or consider which is more significant.

  You have two different peaks at different positions with different annotations. This makes complete sense, you're just misreading it.
