This study shows cohesin and CTCF regulate gene expression through both architectural and direct transcriptional mechanisms, with CTCF also acting as a transcriptional activator independent of cohesin.

The paper identifies H2B acetylation as a marker for active enhancers and shows it predicts enhancer target genes better than existing methods.

The paper investigates how native enhancers interact with promoters to shape cell-type-specific gene expression and shows that enhancers can regulate both developmental and housekeeping genes.

The paper investigates how the SUV39 SET domain mediates crosstalk between H3K9 methylation and H3K14 ubiquitination in heterochromatin formation.
