About Enhancer

Enhancer ID: E_02_0336
Species: human
Position : chr2:221415351-221417351
Biosample name:
Experiment class : High+Lowthroughput
Enhancer type: Enhancer
Disease: Structural variation (sv)
Pubmed ID:  29662163
Enhancer experiment: The PRISMR algorithm,Analyses of the model binding domains,Hi-C,cHi-C,
Enhancer experiment description: Here we present a polymer-physics-based approach (PRISMR) to model 3D chromatin folding and to predict enhancer-promoter contacts. PRISMR predicts higher-order chromatin structure from genome-wide chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) data. Using the EPHA4 locus as a model, the effects of pathogenic SVs are predicted in silico and compared to Hi-C data generated from mouse limb buds and patient-derived fibroblasts. PRISMR deconvolves the folding complexity of the EPHA4 locus and identifies SV-induced ectopic contacts and alterations of 3D genome organization in homozygous or heterozygous states. We show that SVs can reconfigure topologically associating domains, thereby producing extensive rewiring of regulatory interactions and causing disease by gene misexpression. PRISMR can be used to predict interactions in silico, thereby providing a tool for analyzing the disease-causing potential of SVs.
