HACER: Human ACtive Enhancer to interpret Regulatory variants
Center for Quantitative Sciences at Vanderbilt University Medical Center


Purpose of HACER



HACER is an atlas of Human ACtive Enhancer to interpret Regulatory variants, which includes active, transcribed enhancers derived from GRO-seq, PRO-seq and CAGE data.

HACER not only contains cell-type-specific enhancers but also connects enhancers into transcriptional regulatory network by integrating TF-enhancer bindings and validated chromation interactions. HACER represents a unique resource for studies on non-coding variants and enhancer-mediated regulation.


What you can do here


All the data in HACER is based on genome hg19.

Browse enhancers by selecting cell line(s).

Query enhancers to interpret GWAS risk SNPs and eQTL variants.

SNP: Search a GWAS risk SNP or eQTL variant to find cell-type-specific enhancers harboring the SNP/variant, and show TF-enhancer-gene interactions.

Gene: Search a gene to find cell-type-specific enhancers targeting this gene.

Coordinate: Search a genomic region to find cell-type-specific enhancers overlapping this region.

Batch: Search a set of genomic regions to obtain an annotation summary on cell-type-specific enhancers, TF-enhancer-target interactions and associated GWAS phenotypes, and to prioritize them based on their annotations.
