Description

This track shows potential enhancers whose activity was experimentally validated in transgenic mice. Most of these noncoding elements were selected for testing based on their extreme conservation in other vertebrates or epigenomic evidence (ChIP-Seq) of putative enhancer marks. More information can be found on the VISTA Enhancer Browser page.

Display Conventions and Configuration

Items appearing in red indicate that a reproducible pattern was observed in the in vivo enhancer assay. Items appearing in blue indicate that NO reproducible pattern was observed in the in vivo enhancer assay. Note that this annotation refers only to the single developmental timepoint that was tested in this screen (e11.5) and does not exclude the possibility that this region is a reproducible enhancer active at earlier or later timepoints in development.

Methods

Please see Mouse Enhancer Screen Handbook and Methods page of VISTA Enhancer Browser.
