The 3D Regulatory Genome: Dr. Daniel Ibrahim
5 Mar 2026
Our next seminar, moderated by Stefan Schoenfelder, is coming up! Join us on Thursday 5th March at 4:00 PM (UK time) on Zoom.
Dr. Daniel Ibrahim will be presenting: "Enhancer-promoter specificity is determined by the promoter-proximal region"
How do enhancers selectively activate their target promoter while bypassing others? Dr. Ibrahim's work reveals that the promoter-proximal region acts as a molecular filter, conferring cell-type specific enhancer-promoter compatibility, with major implications for how we understand transcriptional regulation and cell identity.
