About Enhancer

Enhancer ID: E_01_0506
Species: human
Position : chr4:71739247-71741247
Biosample name:
Experiment class : High+Lowthroughput
Enhancer type: Enhancer
Disease: Nothing
Pubmed ID:  29738565
Enhancer experiment: siRNA transfection,ChIP,Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin using sequencing (ATAC-seq),
Enhancer experiment description: Here we show genome-wide that blocked GBR generally require CHD9 and BRM for GR occupancy in contrast to GBR that are not blocked by Hic-5. Hic-5 blocked GBR are enriched near Hic-5 blocked GR target genes but not near GR target genes that are not blocked by Hic-5. Furthermore blocked GBR are in a closed conformation prior to Hic-5 depletion, and require Hic-5 depletion and glucocorticoid treatment to create an open conformation necessary for GR occupancy. A transcription factor binding motif characteristic of the ETS family was enriched near blocked GBR and blocked genes but not near non-blocked GBR or non-blocked GR target genes. Thus, we identify specific differences in chromatin conformation, chromatin remodeler requirements, and local DNA sequence motifs that contribute to gene-specific actions of transcription factors and coregulators. These findings shed light on mechanisms that contribute to binding site selection by transcription factors, which vary in a cell type-specific manner.
