SOX-5 activates a novel RORγt enhancer to facilitate experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis by promoting Th17 cell differentiation

T helper 17 (Th17) cells are important mediators of inflammatory diseases and fungal infection protection, and are critically regulated by the transcription factor (TF), RORγt. Here the authors identify a new enhancer for RORγt, RORCE2, which synergizes with another TF, Sox5, for binding with RORγt...
