DNA supercoiling links transcription and chromatin architecture during human stem cell differentiation
2026-02-12
Abstract excerpt
Transcription imposes torsional stress on chromatin, leading to over– or under-winding of the DNA helix. Yet, how supercoiling evolves during dynamic changes in gene expression, and how it influences three-dimensional chromatin contacts in the densely packed human genome, remains unclear. Here, we map genome-wide negative supercoiling and chromatin interactions at high resolution in human embryonic stem cells, usi...
