Most cells in the human body each contain about six feet of DNA. Yet the nucleus, where DNA is coiled, is no larger than a ...

Inside cells, DNA mixes with proteins to form chromatin within the nucleus. Within chromatin, structures called packing domains form when chromatin fibers fold together. These chromatin packing ...

For chromosomes to form the iconic X-shape that ensures the accurate passing of genetic information during cell division, a ...

Varshavsky studied chromatin structure and wanted to develop new methods to detect the DNA-protein interplay in intact cells. Motivated to better understand chromatin structural organization, ...

Chromatin remodeling plays a vital role in gene regulation, affecting how DNA is accessed. Disruptions in this process can ...
