show Abstracthide AbstractHere, we have used digital genomic footprinting to precisely define protein localization for several adipogenic transcription factors at a genome-wide level. In combination with ChIP-seq data, these analyses reveal novel molecular insight into the organization of transcription factors at hotpot regions, which provides a new framework for understanding transcription factor cooperativity on chromatin.
