Prediction of gene regulatory enhancers across species reveals evolutionarily conserved sequence properties.

Genomic regions with gene regulatory enhancer activity turnover rapidly across mammals. In contrast, gene expression patterns and transcription factor binding preferences are largely conserved between mammalian species. Based on this conservation, we hypothesized that enhancers active in different m...
