Comprehensive enhancer-target gene assignments improve gene set level interpretation of genome-wide regulatory data

Abstract Background Revealing the gene targets of distal regulatory elements is challenging yet critical for interpreting regulome data. Experiment-derived enhancer-gene links are restricted to a small set of enhancers and/or cell types, while the accuracy of genome-wide approaches remains elusive d...
