This work describes an extensive, unbiased, array-free, location analysis for CREB, using SACO. Among the findings is that CREB binds in the vicinity (1kb) of CRE elements as well as near CpG islands.

However, their transcriptional role in embryonic stem cell biology is less well understood. Location analysis revealed that Oct4, Sog2 and Nanog are a well-wired transcriptional network that contains highly organized regulatory loops. Furthermore, the coordinative regulation of homeodomain proteins and fate-controlling genes by the network was unexpectedly discovered.

The authors combined the DamID methods with classical mutant analysis, and polytene-staining during early embryogenesis to identify context-dependent Hairy-targets. Hairy was found to be associated with a small group of genes related to the regulation of cell cycle, growth and morphogenesis. Furthermore, this work identifies 'rules' governing recruitment of Hairy co-factors.

41. ••] elegantly resolved the genome-wide location of H3.3. This finding strongly correlates H3.3 localization with that of both RNA pol II recruitment and active gene transcription genome-wide. The approaches taken in the study will probably be adopted for future studies of histone variants, and, therefore, the importance of this study goes beyond the specific finding discussed for H3.3.

A significant number of ORC binding loci coincide with a subset of loci bond by RNA pol II. This suggests that the distribution of transcription factors modulates local origin-selection, and globally affects their activation.
