Mapping the landscape of chromatin dynamics during naïve CD4+ T-cell activation

Abstract T-cell activation induces context-specific gene expression programs that promote energy generation and biosynthesis, progression through the cell cycle and ultimately cell differentiation. The aim of this study was to apply the omni ATAC-seq method to characterize the landscape of chromatin...
