    Characterization of sequence determinants of enhancer function using natural genetic variation

    Marty G Yang, Emi Ling ... Thomas Vierbuchen
    Large-scale, allele-resolved mapping of cis-regulatory function in F1-hybrid mice reveals sequence determinants that control transcription factor binding and enhancer activity in native chromatin context.

    A Mammalian enhancer trap resource for discovering and manipulating neuronal cell types

    Yasuyuki Shima, Ken Sugino ... Sacha B Nelson
    A novel transposon-based enhancer trap screen in mice permits high throughput development of highly restricted driver strains targeting specific neuronal cell types.

    Mice deficient of Myc super-enhancer region reveal differential control mechanism between normal and pathological growth

    Kashyap Dave, Inderpreet Sur ... Jussi Taipale
    A tumor-specific regulatory region has been identified upstream of the Myc oncogene.

    Information content differentiates enhancers from silencers in mouse photoreceptors

    Ryan Z Friedman, David M Granas ... Michael A White
    Silencers and enhancers targeted by a common transcription factor in photoreceptors are distinguished by the number and diversity of binding transcription factor binding sites they contain.

    Predictive modeling reveals that higher-order cooperativity drives transcriptional repression in a synthetic developmental enhancer

    Yang Joon Kim, Kaitlin Rhee ... Hernan G Garcia
    The combination of theoretical modeling and quantitative live imaging revealed that the repressor proteins work cooperatively or anti-cooperatively depending on enhancer architecture.

    MYC activation and BCL2L11 silencing by a tumour virus through the large-scale reconfiguration of enhancer-promoter hubs

    C David Wood, Hildegonda Veenstra ... Michelle J West
    Epstein-Barr virus controls B-cell growth and survival through large-scale reorganization of the enhancers of the MYC and BCL2L11 genes, and may promote MYC translocations as a result.

    Intronic enhancer region governs transcript-specific Bdnf expression in rodent neurons

    Jürgen Tuvikene, Eli-Eelika Esvald ... Tõnis Timmusk
    An evolutionarily conserved neuron-specific and stimulus-dependent enhancer region downstream of the Bdnf exon III regulates the expression of Bdnf transcripts starting from the upstream 5' exons.

    Live-cell imaging reveals enhancer-dependent Sox2 transcription in the absence of enhancer proximity

    Jeffrey M Alexander, Juan Guan ... Orion D Weiner
    Sox2 transcription is not correlated with spatial proximity of its essential regulatory enhancer in embryonic stem cells, suggesting gene transcription is not limited to periods of direct enhancer-promoter contact.

    H3K4 mono- and di-methyltransferase MLL4 is required for enhancer activation during cell differentiation

    Ji-Eun Lee, Chaochen Wang ... Kai Ge
    MLL4 (KMT2D) is a major mammalian H3K4 mono- and di-methyltransferase that is essential for enhancer activation, cell-type-specific gene expression, and cell differentiation.

    Analysis of zebrafish periderm enhancers facilitates identification of a regulatory variant near human KRT8/18

    Huan Liu, Kaylia Duncan ... Robert A Cornell
    Analysis of zebrafish periderm enhancers illuminates the conserved DNA of epithelial enhancers across species and prioritizes orofacial-cleft-associated regulatory variants near KRT18/KRT8.
