For the influenza hemagglutinin trimer benchmark, raw movie data and pre-extracted particles from EMPIAR-10097 were downloaded. The movies were processed with the full Warp pipeline using the following settings: motion correction with a temporal resolution of 40 for the global motion, and 5x5 spatial resolution for the local motion, using the 0.03–0.25 Nyquist range and a B-factor of -400 A2; CTF estimation with 6x6 spatial resolution, using the 0.1–0.35 Nyquist range; particle picking with a BoxNet model retrained on particles from 3 micrographs, using the default 0.95 threshold. Quality filters were applied in Warp as follows: defocus between 0.3 and 5.0 µm, resolution better than 8 Å, intra-frame motion of at most 1.5 Å, particle count above 120. Particles were extracted from the micrographs meeting these filters and subjected to processing in cryoSPARC: no 2D classification was performed; ab initio refinement was performed with 6 classes and no symmetry; the 6 classes were then refined heterogeneously, with no symmetry imposed; the only class showing the expected Hemagglutinin structure was refined with C3 symmetry. The original particle set from EMPIAR-10097 was subjected to 3 different processing strategies. First, the full set was refined in cryoSPARC with C3 symmetry using the original CTF estimates. Second, the full set was subjected to the same classification and refinement as the particles from Warp, using the original CTF estimates. Third, particles from the Hemagglutinin class obtained in the second processing branch were updated with local CTF estimates from Warp, and refined again with C3 symmetry. Resolution estimates were obtained for all maps using the respective masks automatically generated by cryoSPARC.
For the β-galactosidase benchmarking studies, raw data from EMPIAR-10061 were downloaded. The movies were processed with the full Warp pipeline using the following settings: motion correction with a temporal resolution of 38 for the global motion, and a 5x5 spatial resolution for the local motion, using the 0.03–0.60 Nyquist range and a B-factor of -160 Å2; CTF estimation with 5x5 spatial resolution, using the 0.08–0.60 Nyquist range; particle picking with a BoxNet model retrained on particles from 5 micrographs, using a threshold of 0.30. No quality filters were used as the data already represent a high-quality subset curated for the initial publication. Picked and extracted particles were subjected to 2D and 3D classification with C1 symmetry in RELION 2.1 to remove incomplete particles. The remaining particles were refined with D2 symmetry. The final half-maps were then used to refine beam tilt and per-particle defocus in RELION 3.0. Global motion tracks for all movies were exported from Warp to RELION 3.0 to perform Bayesian particle polishing.
To assess the frame alignment accuracy in Warp independently of downstream map refinement, β-galactosidase movies were aligned in Warp as described above, and using the default settings in MotionCor2. CTF fitting was performed with 5x5 spatial resolution, using the 0.08–50 Nyquist range. Frequency-dependent fit quality was calculated as described in the ‘Resolution estimation’ section, and all resulting curves averaged. The resolution was then estimated at a cut-off value of 0.3.

We selected regions containing cCRE-dELSs in three E11.5 mouse tissues (midbrain, hindbrain, and limb) for testing using E11.5 transgenic mouse assays. We excluded dELS-containing regions that overlapped any previously tested regions that were already in the VISTA database (http://enhancer.lbl.gov/). We ranked dELS-containing regions from the most to the least significant by the average rank of DNase and H3K27ac signals in the corresponding tissue and then selected regions from three segments of each tissue’s ranked list (the top, around 1,500, and around 3,000 by rank). We used H3K27ac peaks (called using the ENCODE uniform processing pipeline) that overlapped the cCRE-dELSs to choose the boundaries of the tested regions. In total, we tested 151 regions across the three tissues (Supplementary Table 22).
Transgenic mouse assays were performed in FVB/NCrl strain M. musculus animals (Charles River) as described previously49 (link). In brief, predicted enhancers were PCR amplified and cloned into a plasmid upstream of a minimal Hsp68 promoter and a lacZ reporter gene. The plasmids were pronuclear injected into fertilized mouse eggs, and the transgenic embryos were implanted into surrogate mothers, collected at E11.5, and stained for β-galactosidase activity. A predicted element was scored positive as an enhancer if at least three embryos had identical β-galactosidase staining in the same tissue. Conversely, a prediction was deemed inactive if no reproducible staining was observed and at least five embryos harbouring a transgene insertion were obtained.

The DNA fragments for Brf1 gene promoter 4, Gtf3C2 gene promoter 2, and MDM2 gene promoter 1 were amplified from 293T genomic DNA by PCR. The resulting promoter DNA was inserted into pGL3-basic reporter vector (Promega). 293T and HeLa cells were cultured in 12-well plates for 24 h and were subjected to transient transfection with the Brf1P4 or Gtf3c2P2-driving reporter vectors and the vectors expressing β-galactosidase, where three biological replicates for treatment or control groups were designed. After 48 h, cell samples were harvested and lysed with 100 μl of lysis buffer provided by a dual-light luciferase detection kit (Promega). Five microliters of cell lysate was used to detect the activities of luciferase and β-galactosidase based on the manual provided by the kit. The luciferase activity of each sample was normalized by the activity of β-galactosidase within the same sample. Relative luciferase activity was obtained by comparing the luciferase activity from the treatment samples to that from the control samples, where the activity of the control sample was arbitrarily set as 1. For reporter assays using MDM2P1-driving reporter vectors, luciferase activity for treatment and control was normalized by the protein quantity used in each assay.

The full-length ORFs of RdFV CP and RGDV P8 were separately inserted into bait vector pDHB1 to generate pDHB1-CP and pDHB1-P8, and the full-length ORFs of HongrES1, RdFV CP, RSMV G, and RDV P8 were separately inserted into prey vector pPR3-N to generate pPR3-N-HongrES1, pPR3-N-CP, pPR3-N-G and pPR3-N-P8 (RDV). The bait and prey were co-transformed the yeast strain NMY51. The pLargeT/p53 interaction served as a positive control, and the pDHB1/pRR3N served as a negative control. Transformants were subsequently screened on the QDO (SD/-Trp-Leu-His-Ade/X-Gal) culture medium, and β-galactosidase activity was detected in Z buffer with X-Gal. The primers used in Y2H were shown in Supplementary Table 1.

The hUC-MSCs from the PLL-PLGA scaffold with a density of 1 × 105 cells/well (100 μL) were seeded for β-Galactosidase staining analysis. As well, native hUC-MSCs with the same density from Wharton’s jelly were used as a control. Briefly, the hUC-MSCs of two groups were left to be serially cultured in an incubator at 37 °C with 5% CO2. After 10 days, the cells from different groups were collected and then, respectively, cultured in a 6-well plate with the same density (2 × 104 cells/well, 500 μL). When confluence reached 100%, the hUC-MSCs in each group were treated with a β-galactosidase kit according to the manufacturer’s instructions. After that, all samples were observed by a fluorescence microscope to assess the cell senescence.
