Journal ArticleDOI

Formation of Chromosomal Domains by Loop Extrusion

TL;DR: This model produces TADs and finer-scale features of Hi-C data because each TAD emerges from multiple loops dynamically formed through extrusion, contrary to typical illustrations of single static loops.
Journal ArticleDOI

Iterative correction of Hi-C data reveals hallmarks of chromosome organization

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a pipeline that integrates a strategy for mapping of sequencing reads and a data-driven method for iterative correction of biases, yielding genome-wide maps of relative contact probabilities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Organization of the Mitotic Chromosome

TL;DR: Using polymer simulations, it is found that metaphase Hi-C data are inconsistent with classic hierarchical models and are instead best described by a linearly organized longitudinally compressed array of consecutive chromatin loops.

Organization of the Mitotic Chromosome

TL;DR: In this article, the authors applied chromosome conformation capture methods, 5C and Hi-C, across the cell cycle and revealed two distinct three-dimensional folding states of the human genome.
