Open Chromatin by FAIRE from ENCODE/OpenChrom(UNC Chapel Hill)

ABSTRACT: This data was generated by ENCODE. If you have questions about the data, contact the submitting laboratory directly (Terry Furey mailto:[e-mail]). If you have questions about the Genome Browser track associated with this data, contact ENCODE (mailto:[e-mail]). These tracks display Formaldehyde-Assisted Isolation of Regulatory Elements (FAIRE) evidence as part of the four Open Chromatin track sets. FAIRE is a method to isolate and identify nucleosome-depleted regions of the genome. FAIRE was initially discovered in yeast and subsequently shown to identify active regulatory elements in human cells (Giresi et al., 2007). Similar to DNaseI HS, FAIRE appears to identify functional regulatory elements that include promoters, enhancers, silencers, insulators, locus control reg
