Using a CRISPR genome editing strategy the authors deleted a super-enhancer (SE) around the Sox2 gene in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs). The analysis of transcriptional defects showed that the SE is responsible for over 90% of Sox2 expression, suggesting that the functional significance of this SE is to maintain the pluripotency transcription program in mouse ESCs.
