When the Nanog gene (green region) is inactive, one of the three enhancer regions is spatially far away. When active, the same enhancer region makes close contact, interacting with the other enhancers ...
As cells mature and differentiate (right), they use a much more elaborate and cell-type specific ‘switchboard’ to control their gene expression, especially when compared to earlier, immature stages ...
Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have linked genetic variants to neuropsychiatric disorders, but their regulatory roles in non-coding regions remain largely unclear. Using the LUHMES neuronal ...
