Ligand-dependent enhancer activation indirectly modulates non-target promoters in a chromatin domain
Transcription activation of genes by estrogen is driven by enhancers, which are often located within the same topologically associating domain (TAD) as non-targeted promoters. We investigated how acute enhancer-driven activation affects neighbouring non-target genes within the same TAD. Using single-molecule RNA FISH (smFISH), we tracked the transcription of
