📝 英文原版摘要
<span class="paragraphSection"><div class="boxTitle">Abstract</div>Transcription proteins are concentrated at nuclear transcriptional condensates. These condensates contain <span style="font-style: italic;">cis-</span>regulatory elements (CREs), including enhancers and promoters, that are thought to regulate genes in the same condensate. The roles of condensates are of great current interest, but research into their function is limited by an inability to comprehensively identify their associated CREs. Here, we present a conceptual framework and algorithm, BOUQUET, for integrating genome topology, chromatin occupancy, and graph theory to associate CREs and transcription protein machinery with target genes and identify exceptionally protein-rich communities that interact with condensates. BOUQUET uncovers surprising quantitative correlations between community protein accumulation and gene expression phenotypes by combining accurate CRE-gene assignment with co-activator binding profiles. A small subset of communities, which we call “3D-super-enhancers (3D-SEs),” is exceptionally protein-rich. BOUQUET-predicted 3D-SEs are comparable in number to co-activator nuclear puncta, and all genes known to interact with co-activator condensates in embryonic stem cells are within 3D-SEs. 3D-SEs are enriched for association with cell identity genes across mammalian tissues. Microscopy analyses show frequent co-localization and co-expression of genes from the same 3D-SE within a single co-activator punctum, suggesting 3D-SE components interact with co-activator condensates. Thus, 3D-SEs correspond to co-activator puncta, and our approaches nominate the CREs and genes within them as being condensate-associated.</span>
