STARR-seq identifies active, chromatin-masked, and dormant enhancers in pluripotent mouse embryonic stem cells

Abstract Background Enhancers are distal regulators of gene expression that shape cell identity and control cell fate transitions. In mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs), the pluripotency network is maintained by the function of a complex network of enhancers, that are drastically altered upon differ...
