An expanded registry of candidate cis-regulatory elements

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Mammalian genomes contain millions of regulatory elements that control the complex patterns of gene expression 1 . Previously, the ENCODE consortium mapped biochemical signals across hundreds of cell types and tissues and integrated these data to develop a registry containing 0.9 million human and 300,000 mouse candidate cis -regulatory elements (cCREs) annotated with potential functions 2 . Here we have...
