Back to eRNAs, and this time we're going to look at possible roles in DNA damage control. This paper by Melo et al. is from Reuven Agami's lab at the Netherlands Cancer Institute. The abstract is as follows:
Binding within or nearby target genes involved in cell proliferation and survival …
Moving away from enhancer/promoter looping for a little while, I came across this nice paper from the Bernstein lab at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. This paper is about assigning enhancers to their cognate genes, and also has some interesting implications for the causality of histone modifications on active …
Something rather contradictory for the Enhancer Journal Club series, the Hah et al. paper, published in May from the Kraus lab at UT Southwestern. This paper is really interesting because it has very different conclusions to the previous three papers I've blogged about, and I'm fascinated to see if and …
Another paper for the enhancers/eRNAs Journal Club series. This time I've been reading Lai et al. which was published in February from Ramin Shiekhattar's lab. Following on from the back to back Li and Lam papers in June, I've decided to go back to this paper because it is …

So, now for the second of the two papers about enhancer RNAs from the 27th June edition of Nature. This one is by Li et al. and …

Two super interesting papers about enhancers came out in Nature last week from the Glass and Rosenfeld labs at UCSD. I'm not sure what to make …
