Abstract excerpt
FoxP3 conditions the transcriptional signature and functional facets of regulatory T cells (Treg cells). Its mechanism of action, whether as an activator or a repressor, has remained unclear. Here, chromatin analysis showed that FoxP3 bound active enhancer elements, not repressed chromatin, around loci over- or under-expressed in Treg cells. We evaluated the impact of a panel of FoxP3 mutants on its...
