Dynamic CpG methylation delineates subregions within super-enhancers selectively decommissioned at the exit from naive pluripotency

Clusters of enhancers, called super-enhancers (SEs), control the expression of cell identity genes. Here, the authors identify two types of enhancer units within SEs in ESCs, characterised by distinctive CpG methylation dynamics, and find that ESRRB regulates the enhancer units decommissioned at exi...
