A gain-of-function single nucleotide variant creates a new promoter which acts as an orientation-dependent enhancer-blocker
The role of promoters as potential insulator elements has been largely unexplored in mammals. Here the authors show that a single nucleotide variant in the α-globin locus forms a new promoter and acts as an orientation-dependent enhancer-blocking insulator element.
