Abstract excerpt
Recent localization of cohesin association regions along the yeast chromatin fibre suggests that compositional variability of DNA in yeast is related to the function and organization of the chromosomal loops. The bases of the loops, where the chromatin fibre is attached to the chromosomal axis, are AT-rich, bind cohesin, and are flanked by genes transcribed convergently. The hotspots of meiotic recombination are...
