Computational methods for analyzing multiscale 3D genome organization
In this Review, Zhang et al. discuss how recent advances in computational methods are helping to reveal the multiscale features involved in genome folding within the nucleus and how the resulting 3D genome organization relates to genome function.

CTCF-Mediated Human 3D Genome Architecture Reveals Chromatin Topology for Transcription
Summary Spatial genome organization and its effect on transcription remains a fundamental question. We applied an advanced ChIA-PET strategy to comprehensively map higher-order chromosome folding and specific chromatin interactions mediated by CTCF and ...

3DIV update for 2021: a comprehensive resource of 3D genome and 3D cancer genome
Three-dimensional (3D) genome organization is tightly coupled with gene regulation in various biological processes and diseases. In cancer, various types of large-scale genomic rearrangements can disrupt the 3D genome, leading to oncogenic gene ...

From association to mechanism in complex disease genetics: the role of the 3D genome
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and fine mapping studies in autoimmune diseases have identified thousands of genetic variants, the majority of which are located in non-protein-coding enhancer regions.

Life-long Restructuring of 3D Genome Architecture in Cerebellar Granule Cells
The cerebellum contains most of the neurons in the human brain and exhibits distinctive modes of development and aging. In this work, by developing our single-cell three-dimensional (3D) genome assay—diploid chromosome conformation capture, or Dip-C—into

DNA Methylation Directs Polycomb-Dependent 3D Genome Re-organization in Naive Pluripotency
Summary: The DNA hypomethylation that occurs when embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are directed to the ground state of naive pluripotency by culturing in two small molecule inhibitors (2i) results in redistribution of polycomb (H3K27me3) away from its target ...
