Typical Enhancers, Super-Enhancers, and Cancers

open access: yesCancers, 2022
Non-coding segments of the human genome are enriched in cis-regulatory modules that constitute functional elements, such as transcriptional enhancers and Super-enhancers. A hallmark of cancer pathogenesis is the dramatic dysregulation of the “archetype” gene expression profiles of normal human cells.

Super-enhancers include classical enhancers and facilitators to fully activate gene expression

open access: yesCell, 2023
Super-enhancers are compound regulatory elements that control expression of key cell identity genes. They recruit high levels of tissue-specific transcription factors and co-activators such as the Mediator complex and contact target gene promoters with ...

Super-enhancers are transcriptionally more active and cell type-specific than stretch enhancers

open access: yesEpigenetics, 2018
Super-enhancers and stretch enhancers represent classes of transcriptional enhancers that have been shown to control the expression of cell identity genes and carry disease- and trait-associated variants.

ENHANCING EVOLUTION AND ENHANCING EVOLUTION

Bioethics, 2010
ABSTRACTIt has been claimed in several places that the new genetic technologies allow humanity to achieve in a generation or two what might take natural selection hundreds of millennia in respect of the elimination of certain diseases and an increase in traits such as intelligence.

Are “Genetic Enhancements” Really Enhancements?

Cambridge Quarterly of Healthcare Ethics, 2000
The word enhancement is value laden and potentially misleading in the context of genetics. Dictionary definitions of enhance include “increase in value,” “improve,” “appreciate,” and “inflate.” The term genetic enhancement would be better replaced with a more neutral term such as “genetic manipulation” to reflect the fact that the consequences ...
