Development of multicellular organisms relies on differential gene activation in a single genome. In response to multiple quantitative signals, cell-type specific transcriptional programs are established that determine cell identify. Their perturbation can result in pathologies such as cancer. Large cis-regulatory landscapes integrate information on cell state, space and time to precisely tune the activity of developmental genes. How cis-regulatory landscapes decode multiple quantitative signals remains poorly understood. CisTune aims at gaining a functional and mechanistic understanding of how regulator levels are sensed, how the input from multiple regulators is integrated and how…
