About Enhancer

Enhancer ID: E_01_0225
Species: human
Position : chr16:54280654-54282654
Biosample name:
Experiment class : High+Lowthroughput
Enhancer type: Enhancer
Disease: Tumour
Pubmed ID:  31616042
Enhancer experiment: Flow cytometry
Enhancer experiment description: The mechanism underlying the link between IRX3 and these conditions was since established using both 4-C and CRISPR-Cas9 based methods, which showed that the SNP in the FTO region de-repressed IRX3 expression, leading to altered energy metabolism and increased lipid storage [18, 19].

About Target gene

Target gene : IRX3,VRK2
Strong evidence: qRT-PCR,qPCR,ChIP,3C
Less strong evidence: RNA-Seq
Target gene experiment description: The mechanism underlying the link between IRX3 and these conditions was since established using both 4-C and CRISPR-Cas9 based methods, which showed that the SNP in the FTO region de-repressed IRX3 expression, leading to altered energy metabolism and increased lipid storage [18, 19].;A notable example of an SNP involved in long-range reg_x0002_ulation of gene expression is a locus obtained by merging two SNPs in LD, with two nearby VRK2 and FANCL genes highlighted as putative targets of these variants.
