The Ties That Bind: Mapping the Dynamic Enhancer-Promoter Interactome
نویسندگان
چکیده
Coupling chromosome conformation capture to molecular enrichment for promoter-containing DNA fragments enables the systematic mapping of interactions between individual distal regulatory sequences and their target genes. In this Minireview, we describe recent progress in the application of this technique and related complementary approaches to gain insight into the lineage- and cell-type-specific dynamics of interactions between regulators and gene promoters.

Mapping the D.melanogaster En1A Enhancer Modules Responsible for Transcription Activation and Long-Distance Enhancer-Promoter Interactions
The structure of the new enhancer En1A of the 1A region of the X chromosome of D. melanogaster was investigated. Two distinct regulatory elements were found. The first element is responsible for transcription activation, and the second element provides specific interaction with the promoter of the yellow gene. The findings support the hypothesis of a modular structure for enhancers, including c...
متن کاملUnderstanding Distal transcriptional Regulation from Sequence, Expression and interactome Perspectives
Gene regulation in eukaryotes involves a complex interplay between the proximal promoter and distal genomic elements (such as enhancers) which work in concert to drive precise spatio-temporal gene expression. The experimental localization and characterization of gene regulatory elements is a very complex and resource-intensive process. The computational identification of regulatory regions that...
متن کاملThe dietary wood betony, Stachys lavandulifolia Vahl extract as a growth promoter and immune enhancer in common carp (Cyprinus carpio)
The present study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of wood betony (WB), Stachys lavandulifolia extract on growth performance and some immune responses in common carp, Cyprinus carpio. Different concentrations of the WB extract 0, 2, 4 and 8% (g per 100 g of diet) were added to commercial diet. Each treatment was randomly assigned to triplicate groups of fish having average initial weight ...
متن کاملInteractome Maps of Mouse Gene Regulatory Domains Reveal Basic Principles of Transcriptional Regulation
A key finding of the ENCODE project is that the enhancer landscape of mammalian cells undergoes marked alterations during ontogeny. However, the nature and extent of these changes are unclear. As part of the NIH Mouse Regulome Project, we here combined DNaseI hypersensitivity, ChIP-seq, and ChIA-PET technologies to map the promoter-enhancer interactomes of pluripotent ES cells and differentiate...
متن کاملCharacterization of an upstream enhancer region in the promoter of the human endothelial nitric-oxide synthase gene.
The endothelial nitric-oxide synthase gene is constitutively expressed in endothelial cells. Several transcriptionally active regulatory elements have been identified in the proximal promoter, including a GATA-2 and an Sp-1 binding site. Because they cannot account for the constitutive expression of endothelial nitric-oxide synthase gene in a restricted number of cells, we have searched for oth...
