Nucleosomes Are Stably Evicted from Enhancers but Not Promoters upon Induction of Certain Pro-Inflammatory Genes in Mouse Macrophages

Chromatin is thought to act as a barrier for binding of cis-regulatory transcription factors (TFs) to their sites on DNA and recruitment of the transcriptional machinery. Here we have analyzed changes in nucleosome occupancy at the enhancers as well as at the promoters of three pro-inflammatory gene...
