Multi-feature clustering of CTCF binding creates robustness for loop extrusion blocking and Topologically Associating Domain boundaries [PDF]
Topologically Associating Domains (TADs) separate vertebrate genomes into insulated regulatory neighborhoods that focus genome-associated processes. TADs are formed by Cohesin-mediated loop extrusion, with many TAD boundaries consisting of clustered ...

Deciphering chromatin domain, domain community and chromunity for 3D genome maps with Mactop
Advanced high-throughput chromosome conformation capture techniques, like Hi-C, reveal genome organization into structural units like topologically associating domains (TADs), which are crucial in gene expression regulation.

Mutations of PDS5 genes enhance TAD-like domain formation in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
In eukaryotes, topologically associating domains (TADs) organize the genome into functional compartments. While TAD-like structures are common in mammals and many plants, they are challenging to detect in Arabidopsis thaliana.

TAD boundaries and gene activity are uncoupled. [PDF]
Topologically associating domains (TADs) are prominent features of genome organization. A proposed function of TADs is to contribute to gene regulation by promoting chromatin interactions within a TAD and by suppressing interactions between TADs.

Topologically Associating Domain Boundaries are Commonly Required for Normal Genome Function [PDF]
Summary Topologically associating domain (TAD) boundaries are thought to partition the genome into distinct regulatory territories. Anecdotal evidence suggests that their disruption may interfere with normal gene expression and cause disease phenotype 1–

An Investigation of Segmental Duplications across Topologically Associating Domains [PDF]
High-throughput chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) reveals organization within genomes. Topologically associating domains (TADs) make up one level of organization and are identified by applying algorithms to Hi-C data.

Multi-Layer Transcriptomic Comparison Across Human, Pig, and Mouse Informs Tissue- and Trait-Specific Animal Model Selection. [PDF]
We integrated RNA‐seq data from humans, pigs, and mice across 15 matched tissues based on 14 910 one‐to‐one orthologous genes. Cross‐species similarity was systematically evaluated across multiple regulatory layers, including global co‐expression conservation, co‐expression networks, tissue‐specific programs, and 3D genome architecture.

Background Topologically associating domains (TADs) are important building blocks of three-dimensional genome architectures. The formation of TADs has been shown to depend on cohesin in a loop-extrusion mechanism.

Methods for the Analysis of Topologically Associating Domains (TADs)
Chromatin folding in the 3D space of the nucleus can be explored through high-throughput chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) approaches. These experiments quantify the number of interactions between any pair of genomic loci in the genome and, thus ...
