MAPT expression is mediatedd by long-range interactions with cis-regulatory elements.. MAPT expression is mediatedd by long-range interactions with cis-regulatory elements.

This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below. Overall design: We performed HiC, chromatin conformation capture (Capture-C), single-nucleus multiomics (RNA-seq+ATAC-seq), bulk ATAC-seq, and ChIP-seq for H3K27Ac and CTCF in NPCs and neurons differentiated from human iPSC cultures. We nominated candidate cis-regulatory elements (cCREs) for MAPT in human NPCs, differentiated neurons, and pure cultures of inhibitory and excitatory neurons. We then assayed these cCREs using luciferase assays and CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) experiments to measure their effects on MAPT expression. Finally, we integrated cCRE annotations into an analysis of genetic variation in AD cases and controls.
