Abstract excerpt
Potentiation is requisite for the expression of our genome. It is the mechanism of opening chromatin domains to render genes accessible to tissue-specific and ubiquitous transacting-factors that enables transcription. The results presented in this study demonstrate that modulation of stage- and c...
