Abstract
Among the multiple events leading to immunoglobulin (Ig) expression in B cells, stepwise activation of the Ig heavy chain locus (IgH) is of critical importance. Transcription regulation of the complex IgH locus has always been an interesting viewpoint to unravel the multiple and complex events required for IgH expression. First, regulatory germline transcripts (GLT) assist DNA remodeling events such as VDJ recombination, class switch recombination (CSR) and somatic hypermutation (SHM). Second, productive spliced transcripts restrict heavy chain protein expression associated either with the surface receptor of developing B cells or secreted in large amounts in plasma cells. One main transcriptional regulator for IgH lies at its 3' extremity and includes both a set of enhancers grouped in a large 3' regulatory region (3'RR) and a cluster of 3'CTCF-binding elements (3'CBEs). In this focused review, we will preferentially refer to evidence reported for the murine endogenous IgH locus, whether it is wt or carries deletions or insertions within the IgH 3' boundary and associated regulatory region.

Abstract
Super-enhancers (genome elements that activate gene transcription) are DNA regions with an elevated concentration of transcriptional complexes. These multiprotein structures contain, among other components, the cyclin-dependent kinases 8 and 19. These and other transcriptional protein kinases are regarded as novel targets for pharmacological inhibition by antitumor drug candidates.

Abstract
Class switch recombination (CSR) plays an important role in humoral immunity by generating antibodies with different effector functions. CSR to a particular antibody isotype is induced by external stimuli, and occurs between highly repetitive switch (S) sequences. CSR requires transcription across S regions, which generates long non-coding RNAs and secondary structures that promote accessibility of S sequences to activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID). AID initiates DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) intermediates that are repaired by general DNA repair pathways. Switch transcription is controlled by various regulatory elements, including enhancers and insulators. The current paradigm posits that transcriptional control of CSR involves long-range chromatin interactions between regulatory elements and chromatin loops-stabilizing factors, which promote alignment of partner S regions in a CSR centre (CSRC) and initiation of CSR. In this review, we focus on the role of IgH transcriptional control elements in CSR and the chromatin-based mechanisms underlying this control.
