Abstract: AbstractThe vast majority of eukaryotic transcription occurs in bursts during discrete periods of promoter activity, separated by periods of deep repression and inactivity. Elucidating the factors responsible for triggering transitions between these two states has been extremely challenging, partly due to the difficulties in measuring transcriptional bursting genome-wide, but also due to the vast array of candidate transcriptional and epigenetic factors and their complex and dynamic interactions. Additionally, this long-held view of transcripti...
