Repurposing of promoters and enhancers during mammalian evolution

Enhancers and promoters are different types of regulatory elements with shared architectural and functional features. Here the authors perform integrated cross-mammalian analyses of DNase hypersensitivity, chromatin modification and transcriptional data, to provide evidence of regulatory repurposing...
