NF1 and neoplasm: Cancer-related genes were highly enriched with chromatin interactions, and chromatin interactions specific to the A549 cell line were associated with oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes, such as additional repressive interactions on FOXO4 and promoter–promoter interactions between NF1 and RNF135. Knockout of an anchor associated with chromatin interactions reversed the dysregulation of cancer-related genes, suggesting that chromatin interactions are essential for proper expression of lung cancer-related genes.
