CRISPRi-validated cis-regulatory element chr20.213
RGD ID:
38611743
Description:
This genomic region represents a DNase I hypersensitive site (DHS) that was predicted to be an enhancer by the ENCODE (ENCyclopedia Of DNA Elements) project based on various combinations of H3K27 acetylation and binding of p300, GATA1 and RNA polymerase II in K562 erythroleukemia cells. It was validated as a cis-regulatory element for the AVP (arginine vasopressin) gene on chromosome 20 based on multiplex CRISPR/Cas9-mediated perturbation in K562 cells. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2019]
