Molecular basis and biological function of variability in spatial genome organization
EH Finn, T Misteli - Science, 2019 - science.org
BACKGROUND The eukaryotic genome is hierarchically organized in the cell nucleus into
DNA loops, chromatin domains, compartments, and, ultimately, chromosomes. Many of the …

Nuclear deformability and telomere dynamics are regulated by cell geometric constraints
Forces generated by the cytoskeleton can be transmitted to the nucleus and chromatin via
physical links on the nuclear envelope and the lamin meshwork. Although the role of these …

Chromosome positioning from activity-based segregation
Chromosomes within eukaryotic cell nuclei at interphase are not positioned at random, since
gene-rich chromosomes are predominantly found towards the interior of the cell nucleus …
