    Abstract

    Bertolini et al. report that long-range chromatin interactions in neural stem cells (NSCs) are enriched in Sox2-bound enhancers; in Sox2-deleted NSCs, interactions are reduced. Genes downregulated in Sox2-deleted cells are enriched in interactions with enhancers normally Sox2-bound. Overexpression of Socs3, a gene downregulated in mutant NSCs, rescues long-term NSC self-renewal.
