Mapping chromosome neighborhoods [PDF]
The discovery of topologically associating domains (TADs) changed the way researchers think about gene expression and chromosome structure. Jeffrey Perkel takes a closer look into these “chromosome neighborhoods.”

First Description of a Satellite DNA in Manatees’ Centromeric Regions
Trichechus manatus and Trichechus inunguis are the two Sirenia species that occur in the Americas. Despite their increasing extinction risk, many aspects of their biology remain understudied, including the repetitive DNA fraction of their genomes.

Chromosome maps of legumes [PDF]
Legumes are of immense importance as food and feed, and for sustainable agriculture, due to their ability to fix nitrogen. Here, the chromosome maps of the legumes soybean (Glycine max), Lotus (Lotus japonicus), and red clover (Trifolium pratense) are reviewed.

Separation and Mapping of Chromosomes of Parasitic Protozoa [PDF]
Many protozoan parasites represent an important group of human pathogens. Pulsed Field Gradient Gel Electrophoresis (PFGE) analysis has been an important tool for fundamental genetic studies of parasites like Trypanosoma, Leishmania, Giardia or the human

Normalization of a chromosomal contact map [PDF]
Abstract Background Chromatin organization has been increasingly studied in relation with its important influence on DNA-related metabolic processes such as replication or regulation of gene expression. Since its original design ten years ago, capture of chromosome conformation (3C) has become an essential tool to ...
