Simple Combinations of Lineage-Determining Transcription Factors Prime cis-Regulatory Elements Required for Macrophage and B Cell Identities

TLDR
It is demonstrated in macrophages and B cells that collaborative interactions of the common factor PU.1 with small sets of macrophage- or B cell lineage-determining transcription factors establish cell-specific binding sites that are associated with the majority of promoter-distal H3K4me1-marked genomic regions.

deepTools2: a next generation web server for deep-sequencing data analysis

TL;DR: An update to the Galaxy-based web server deepTools, which allows users to perform complete bioinformatic workflows ranging from quality controls and normalizations of aligned reads to integrative analyses, including clustering and visualization approaches, is presented.

Histone H3K27ac separates active from poised enhancers and predicts developmental state

TL;DR: The epigenetic landscape of enhancer elements in embryonic stem cells and several adult tissues in the mouse is interrogated and it is found that histone H3K27ac distinguishes active enhancers from inactive/poised enhancers and poised enhancer networks provide clues to unrealized developmental programs.

Master Transcription Factors and Mediator Establish Super-Enhancers at Key Cell Identity Genes

TL;DR: In this article, the ESC master transcription factors form unusual enhancer domains at most genes that control the pluripotent state, called super-enhancers, which consist of clusters of enhancers that are densely occupied by the master regulators and Mediator.

A two-step, PU.1-dependent mechanism for developmentally regulated chromatin remodeling and transcription of the c-fms gene.

TL;DR: The two-step mechanism of developmental gene activation that is described here may be utilized to regulate gene activity in a variety of developmental pathways.

C/EBPα:AP-1 leucine zipper heterodimers bind novel DNA elements, activate the PU.1 promoter and direct monocyte lineage commitment more potently than C/EBPα homodimers or AP-1

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that C/EBPα also zippers with AP-1 proteins and that this interaction allows contact with novel DNA elements and induction of monocyte lineage commitment in myeloid progenitors.

Transcription Factor PU.1 Controls Transcription Start Site Positioning and Alternative TLR4 Promoter Usage

TL;DR: A detailed in vivo and in vitro study of the murine Tlr4 gene, including analysis of transcription start site location, transcription factor occupancy, and activities of its proximal regulatory sequences identified a PU.1-dependent myeloid promoter, which is conserved between humans and mouse.

Gene regulatory networks orchestrating B cell fate specification, commitment, and differentiation.

TL;DR: A comprehensive developmental model is proposed that invokes sequentially acting regulatory networks which dictate the generation of B cells from multipotential hematopoietic progenitors.
