A Cell type-specific Class of Chromatin Loops Anchored at Large DNA Methylation Nadirs
2017-11-09
Abstract excerpt
Higher order chromatin structure and DNA methylation are implicated in multiple developmental processes, but their relationship to cell state is unknown. Here, we found that large (~10kb) DNA methylation nadirs can form long loops connecting anchor loci that may be dozens of megabases apart, as well as interchromosomal links. The interacting loci comprise ~3.5Mb of the human genome. The data are more consistent wi...
