A tissue-specific self-interacting chromatin domain forms independently of enhancer-promoter interactions

Self-interacting chromatin domains encompass genes and their cis-regulatory elements. Here the authors use high-resolution chromosome conformation capture and super-resolution imaging to study a 70 kb domain that includes the mouse α-globin regulatory locus and find that a tissue-specific self-inter...

Sumario:Self-interacting chromatin domains encompass genes and their cis-regulatory elements. Here the authors use high-resolution chromosome conformation capture and super-resolution imaging to study a 70 kb domain that includes the mouse α-globin regulatory locus and find that a tissue-specific self-interacting chromatin domain forms independently of enhancer-promoter interactions.
