Chromatin organization strengthens DNA for mechanically stressful processes like mitosis, helps protect DNA from damage and is important in the control of gene expression and DNA replication.
Researchers at the University of California San Diego Center for Epigenomics (C4E) have developed a new technique, called Droplet Hi-C, that allows scientists to rapidly determine chromatin ...
the repetitive weak interaction between nucleosomes causes the stacking of many chromatin layers. These low energy interactions at the nanoscale justify the self-organization of whole chromosomes ...
Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) is a technique for identifying and characterizing elements in protein-DNA interactions involved in gene regulation or chromatin organization. Microarray ...
A new study has created a map of DNA modification in two regions of the brain critical to learning, memory and emotional regulation. The map offers a benchmark for ensuring stem cell-based models ...
