About Enhancer

Enhancer ID: E_02_0008
Species: mouse
Position : chr15:63714919-63952099
Biosample name:
Experiment class : Low+High throughput
Enhancer type: Super-Enhancer
Disease: Leukaemia
Pubmed ID:  29342133
Enhancer experiment: ChIP-seq
Enhancer experiment description: Here we show that an evolutionarily conserved region located 1.7 megabases downstream of the Myc gene that has previously been labelled as a super_x0002_enhancer2 is essential for the regulation of Myc expression levels in both normal haematopoietic and leukaemic stem cell hierarchies in mice and humans. Deletion of this region in mice leads to a complete loss of Myc expression in haematopoietic stem cells and progenitors.

About Target gene

Target gene : Myc(MRTLC,bHLHe39,c-Myc)
Strong evidence: --
Less strong evidence: ChIP-seq,ATAC-seq,RT-qPCR
Target gene experiment description: In line with this hypothesis, chromatin conformation capture performedon mouse leukaemic cells2 as well as DNA proximity analysis using fluorescence in situ hybridization (DNA FISH) in LSK cells showed that the Myc promoter and BENC are in close physical proximity to each other, suggesting that cis-regulation is mediated by chromosomal looping in haematopoietic stem and progenitor cells.

About Function

Enhancer function : Clusters of enhancers, such as BENC, form highly combinatorial systems that allow precise control of gene expression across normal cellular hierarchies and which also can be hijacked in malignancies.
Enhancer function experiment: ATAC-seq,RT-qPCR
Enhancer function
experiment description:
Analysis of mice carrying deletions of individual Enhancer modules suggests that specific Myc expression levels throughout most of the haematopoietic hierarchy are controlled by the combinatorial and additive activity of individual Enhancer modules, which collectively function as a blood Enhancer cluster(BENC).
