Maintenance of stem-cell identity requires proper regulation of enhancer activity. Both transcription factors OCT4/SOX2/NANOG and histone methyltransferase complexes MLL/SET1 were shown to regulate en
We explored the relationship between enhancer-promoter pairs, spatial proximity and cell specific gene expression Overall design: We performed HiChIP using the H3K27ac antibody in two cell lines, Endo
We identified and characterized multiple cell-type selective enhancers of the CFTR gene promoter in previous work and demonstrated active looping of these elements to the promoter. Here we address the
Acheiropodia, congenital limb truncation, is associated with homozygous deletions in the LMBR1 gene around ZRS, an enhancer regulating SHH during limb development. How these deletions leads to this ph
The repertoire of enhancers orchestrating gene expression during embryonic development shapes the forms and functions of organs. Within regulatory landscapes, enhancers control their target genes thro
