Vectors for Human LOC106799832

This region is located in an intron of the CECR1 (cat eye syndrome chromosome region, candidate 1) gene on chromosome 22. A subregion can function as an enhancer in human Jurkat T cells. The spatially equivalent or corresponding region in mouse, which is not conserved at the sequence level, can also function as an enhancer in mouse EL4 T cells. The chromatin structure of this region represents a histone acetylation island in human T cells based on the diacetylation of histone H3 at lysines 9 and 14. This locus also includes two accessible chromatin subregions that were validated as enhancers based on their ability to activate an origin of replication minimal core promoter by the ATAC-STARR-seq (assay for transposase-accessible chromatin with self-transcribing active regulatory region sequencing) massively parallel reporter assay (MPRA) in GM12878 lymphoblastoid cells.
