Super-enhancers are transcriptionally more active and cell-type-specific than stretch enhancers

2018-04-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Super-enhancers and stretch enhancers represent classes of transcriptional enhancers that have been shown to control the expression of cell identity genes and carry disease- and trait-associated variants. Specifically, super-enhancers are clusters of enhancers defined based on the binding occupancy of master transcription factors (TFs), chromatin regulators, or chromatin marks, while stretch e...
