The overall structure is a 3D forest at microscale. Chromatin is responsible for packing DNA into the cell nucleus. In humans, that's about six feet of DNA in each cell.

Chromatin, the compact form of DNA, ... In our current study, we aimed to investigate how genetic variants influence the 3D structure of the DNA containing this gene," says vonHoldt, ...

In a paper published on aBIOTECH, the authors revealed the joint regulation of chromatin structure and gene expression by BMI1s, the core components of Arabidopsis PRC1, and the condensin complexes.

In the cell, DNA is tightly wound around proteins in a complex called chromatin. This 3D structure compacts the DNA, prevents DNA damage and, critically, regulates gene expression.

Within plant nuclei, chromatin is not arranged randomly. Instead, chromatin—a combination of DNA and proteins—forms a carefully organized 3D structure that plays a vital role in regulating ...

Dovetail Genomics produce assay kits that enable researchers to view the chromatin structure of human genomes in 3D. Technology Networks spoke with Dovetail Genomics CEO, Todd Dickinson, to learn more ...

Dynamic changes in the 3D structure of the chromatin in the leg precursor cells bring the Pen enhancer into spatial proximity to the Pitx1 gene, ...
