Linking differential chromatin loops to transcriptional decisions.

Abstract:

:GATA-1 and GATA-2 control proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic progenitor cells via transcriptional regulation. In this issue of Molecular Cell, Jing et al. (2008) demonstrate that GATA factor exchange on the Kit locus directs a transcriptional switch by reconfiguring chromatin loops.
