Abstract

Accurate targeting of transcriptional enhancers to the correct promoter poses a significant information problem in higher eukaryotes. Enhancer-core promoter specificity may provide one solution. Reporting recently in Nature, Zabidi et al. (2014) uncover, via a genome-wide analysis approach, two general classes of enhancer-promoter interactions differentially regulating "housekeeping" versus "developmental" genes.
