Congrats to @ViraatGoel James Jusuf et al. on new preprint in collab with @Irate_Physicist @blobelgroup @leonidmirny discovering transient microcompartments that connect enhancers and promoters in mitotic chromosomes: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
www.biorxiv.org Dynamics of microcompartment formation at the mitosis-to-G1 transition As cells exit mitosis and enter G1, mitotic chromosomes decompact and transcription is reestablished. Previously, Hi-C studies showed that essentially all interphase 3D genome features including...
