DNA supercoiling is one of the forces that increase the efficiency of intra-TAD promoter–enhancer communications. Low-level transcription of enhancers can lead to accumulation of negative supercoiling in particular intra-TAD regions that increases the frequency of the contact events between distant regulatory elements, promoters, and enhancers.
