RIKEN researchers have succeeded in reconstituting long stretches of chromatin arrays. In this atomic force microscopy image, the reconstituted chromatin array contains about 98 nucleosomes. Credit: ...
Researchers have mapped DNA methylation and 3D genome contacts in the same cells. The atlas uncovers cell-type-specific ...
This Brush Up is sponsored by Cayman Chemical. Learn more about chemical inhibitors of histone modification. Histone modification affects how tightly DNA wraps around histone proteins, yielding ...
Certain epigenetic modifications can directly control how genetic material is packed in the nucleus, RIKEN researchers have shown. This has important implications for our understanding of how genes ...
