A distant global control region is essential for normal expression of anterior HOXA genes during mouse and human craniofacial development

Abstract Craniofacial abnormalities account for approximately one third of birth defects. The regulatory programs that build the face require precisely controlled spatiotemporal gene expression, achieved through tissue-specific enhancers. Clusters of coactivated enhancers and their target genes, kno...
