Article Synopsis
  • Enhancers and promoters help regulate RNA polymerase activity by forming stable protein complexes, known as enhanceosomes, at specific gene loci.
  • Research on the mouse β-globin gene locus using the MAPit method revealed that a specific DNA element (MARE) shows high occupancy during the differentiation of certain cells, indicating strong binding of proteins in that region.
  • Targeting an artificial DNA-binding domain to this MARE site reduced binding of proteins necessary for transcription, underscoring its role in recruiting transcription complexes during cell differentiation, without impacting other globin genes.
