title: Gene regulation by proteins acting nearby and at a distance.
abstract: Transcription of genes can be controlled by regulatory proteins that bind to sites on the DNA either nearby or at a considerable distance. Recent experiments suggest a unified view of these apparently disparate types of gene regulation.
