What are super-enhancers?

Nature genetics - 1 Jan 2015

Pott Sebastian, Lieb Jason D

Abstract excerpt

The term 'super-enhancer' has been used to describe groups of putative enhancers in close genomic proximity with unusually high levels of Mediator binding, as measured by chromatin immunoprecipitation and sequencing (ChIP-seq). Here we review the identification and composition of super-enhancers, describe links between super-enhancers, gene regulation and disease, and discuss the functional significance of...
