Differential Gene Expression
... 2. Enhancers are the major determinants of differential transcription in cell types and through developmental stages. 3. There can be multiple signals (e.g. multiple enhancer sites) for a given gene, and each enhancer can be bound by more than one transcription factor (not at the same time). 4. Tran ...
