TADKB: Family classification and a knowledge base of topologically associating domains [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2019 Background Topologically associating domains (TADs) are considered the structural and functional units of the genome. However, there is a lack of an integrated resource for TADs in the literature where researchers can obtain family classifications and ...

Structural and functional diversity of Topologically Associating Domains [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 2015 Recent studies have shown that chromosomes in a range of organisms are compartmentalized in different types of chromatin domains. In mammals, chromosomes form compartments that are composed of smaller Topologically Associating Domains (TADs).

Clustered CTCF binding is an evolutionary mechanism to maintain topologically associating domains [PDF]
Genome Biology, 2020 Background CTCF binding contributes to the establishment of a higher-order genome structure by demarcating the boundaries of large-scale topologically associating domains (TADs).

Topologically associating domains are ancient features that coincide with Metazoan clusters of extreme noncoding conservation [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2017 Metazoan genomes contain many clusters of conserved noncoding elements. Here, the authors provide evidence that these clusters coincide with distinct topologically associating domains in humans and Drosophila, revealing a conserved regulatory genomic ...

Identifying topologically associating domains and subdomains by Gaussian Mixture model And Proportion test [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2017 Spatial organization of the genome plays a crucial role in regulating gene expression. Here the authors introduce GMAP, the Gaussian Mixture model And Proportion test, to identify topologically associating domains and subdomains in Hi-C data.

KSHV Topologically Associating Domains in Latent and Reactivated Viral Chromatin. [PDF]
J Virol, 2022 Eukaryotic genomes are structurally organized via the formation of multiple loops that create gene expression regulatory units called topologically associating domains (TADs). Here we revealed the KSHV TAD structure at 500 bp resolution and constructed a
