Previous studies have reported MLL-AF4 binding at intragenic and intergenic enhancers, however, the role of MLL-AF4 in enhancer function remains to be investigated. Here, the authors show that MLL-AF4 cooperates with PAF1 and FACT at enhancers to promote high-density interactions with oncogene promoters in leukemia.
