Journal ArticleDOI

Predictive Polymer Modeling Reveals Coupled Fluctuations in Chromosome Conformation and Transcription

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that contacts between potential regulatory elements occur in the context of fluctuating structures rather than stable loops and proposed that such fluctuations may contribute to asymmetric expression in the Xic during X inactivation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural organization of the inactive X chromosome in the mouse

TL;DR: A crucial role is demonstrated for Xist and the DXZ4-containing boundary in shaping Xi chromosome structure using allele-specific genome-wide chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) analysis, an assay for transposase-accessible chromatin with high throughput sequencing (ATAC–seq) and RNA sequencing, and deletion of the boundary disrupts mega-domain formation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of surface nanometre-scale morphology on protein adsorption.

TL;DR: The results show that the adsorption of proteins depends significantly on surface nanostructure and that the relevant morphological parameter regulating the protein adsorbed proteins process is the nanometric pore shape.
