AbstractThe type 2 cytokines, interleukin (IL)-4, IL-13 and IL-5 reside within a multigene cluster. Both innate (ILC2) and adaptive T helper 2 (TH2) lymphocytes secrete type 2 cytokines with diverse production spectra. Using transcription factor footprint and chromatin accessibility, we systemically cataloged regulatory elements (REs) denoted as SHS-I/II, KHS-I/II, +6.5kbIl13, 5HS-I(a, b, c, d, e), 5HS-II and 5HS-III(a, b, c) across the extended Il4-Il13-Il5 locus in mice.
