Structure and Function in Drosophila Chromosomes: Visualizing Topological Domains

Mol Cell. 2019 Apr 4;74(1):3-4. doi: 10.1016/j.molcel.2019.03.017.

Abstract

Cardozo Gizzi et al. (2019) develop a new sequential imaging methodology (Hi-M) for observing chromosome structure in the Drosophila blastoderm and find that topological domains in single nuclei change in response to transcriptional activation.
