Pubmed ID:  26886256
Enhancer experiment: ChIP-seq
Enhancer experiment description: We termed these promoter-distal elements, which carry the H3K4me1 mark in ES but not in hematopoietic cells,the ES-specific enhancers (ESSEs) of the hematopoietic cell lineage.

About Target gene

Target gene : VEGFA (MVCD1,VEGF,VPF)
Strong evidence: 4C-seq,CRISPR/Cas9
Less strong evidence: Luciferase Reporter Assay
Target gene experiment description: To determine whether this ESSE is able to enhance transcription, a 1,500 bp fragment surrounding the ESSE methylation site was cloned upstream to a minimal SV40 promoter in a luciferase reporter plasmid and transfected to K562 cells.Indeed, the ESSE segment significantly enhanced expression when placed upstream or downstream to the minimal promoter. Thus,the DNA element surrounding the ESSE site is a transcriptional enhancer in leukemia cells.The Circularized Chromosome Conformation Capture (4C-seqencing) assay allowed mapping the interactions between the VEGFA promoter and DNA sequences across the K562 cell genome.To determine whether VEGFA expression depends upon the ESSE, we mutated the ESSE site in K562 cells by utilization of the CRISPR/Cas9 genome-editing system.

About TF

TF name : STAT1/2(CANDF7,IMD31A,IMD31B,IMD31C,ISGF-3,STAT91)
TF experiment: ChIP-seq
TF experiment description: Focused (<600 bp) cluster of transcription factor binding sites (Chip-seq data) within the predicted enhancer. The factors bound in K562 cells are listed. This is the only cluster within 20 kb around the ESSE.
