Non-coding RNA controls long-range enhancer-promoter interactions

Transcription regulation depends on interactions between enhancers and gene promoters, which often occur over large genomic distances. The molecular drivers of long-range enhancer-promoter interactions remain poorly understood. Enhancers themselves are known to be transcribed into non-coding RNAs, but the function of these transcripts is unclear. Here, we use acute genetic and chemical…
