A fast Myosin super enhancer dictates muscle fiber phenotype through competitive interactions with Myosin genes
The contractile properties of adult myofibers are shaped by their Myosin heavy chain isoform content. Here the authors show that a super enhancer controls the spatiotemporal expression of the genes at the fast myosin heavy chain locus by DNA looping and that this expression profile is recapitulated...
