ABSTRACT: Massively parallel reporter assays (MPRA) are widely used to discover functional enhancers but have largely been limited to transfected cell models, which are confounded by vector-induced innate immune responses and lack the physiologically relevant cellular and endogenous hormonal context and chromatin environment of complex mammalian tissues. Here, we combine hydrodynamic injection with a modified STARR-seq-based MPRA to determine condition-specific enhancer activity in mouse liver at scale. Strong liver enhancer activity was observed with STARR-seq libraries containing an Albumin minimal promoter but not when using a Super Core promoter or an origin of replication promoter. Analysis of a global STARR-seq library, comprised of ~50,000 genomic sequences released by DNase-I digestion of mouse liver nuclei, identified condition-specific enhancers and revealed strong correlations between liver enhancer activity and the chromatin state of the corresponding endogenous genomic regions.
