About Enhancer

Enhancer ID: E_01_0403
Species: human
Position : chr1:209782740-209784740
Biosample name:
Experiment class : High+Lowthroughput
Enhancer type: Enhancer
Disease: Van der woude syndrome (cleft lip / palate), popliteal pterygium syndrome (eye disease)
Pubmed ID:  29913133
Enhancer experiment: Western blot,
Enhancer experiment description: Therefore, we conclude that IRF6 and TFAP2A are part of a genetic regulatory network that is critical in epithelial development, with implications for both orofacial and cutaneous tissues. Our work provides in vivo, functional data to explain the relationship between AP2A protein binding and the MCS9.7 enhancer in orofacial clefting. This work is important because the MCS9.7 enhancer element contains a variant that abrogates AP2A protein binding and increases risk for orofacial clefting worldwide.
