This 'acidic patch' varies between different histone variants. Several types of chromatin 'secondary structure' may coexist depending on the functional context. An important aspect of chromatin ...

The ability to explore the genome on a sub-nucleosome level promises to lead to new discoveries about how chromatin structure is linked to epigenetics ...

Sarah Swygert, examined how changes in chromatin structure affect gene expression during the process of quiescence. Chromatin structure is present at many levels. First, the authors explained, ...

A novel, freely available AI tool has cut the time it takes to determine chromatin structure from days to minutes. The 3D structure of DNA is important for controlling cell-specific gene expression ...

The results offer valuable clues into the evolution of chromatin structure in multi-cellular organisms and promise insights into how abnormalities in such structure can contribute to cancers and ...

A study on dogs found that chromatin's spatial structure has a significant role in the evolution of social behavior. Chromatin, the compact form of DNA, not only packages genetic material but also ...

One critical aspect of epigenetic regulation is the 3D structure of the genome (chromatin). If genes can be compared to cells’ hardware, epigenetics is software, and chromatin structure is the ...

A new study on dogs found that chromatin's spatial structure has a significant role in the evolution of social behavior. Chromatin, the compact form of DNA, not only packages genetic material but ...

In a paper published in NAR Cancer, researchers from the Center for Childhood Cancer Research at Nationwide Children's and their collaborators report a comprehensive 3D chromatin structural ...
