Bromodomain protein BRD4 is required for estrogen receptor-dependent enhancer activation and gene transcription.

The estrogen receptor α (ERα) controls cell proliferation and tumorigenesis by recruiting various cofactors to estrogen response elements (EREs) to control gene transcription. A deeper understanding of these transcriptional mechanisms may uncover therapeutic targets for ERα-dependent cancers. We sho...
