Individual transcription factors modulate both the micromovement of chromatin and its long-range structure

David Michael Suter, Natalya Katanayeva, Haitham Ahmed Shaban Ahmed, Armelle Inge Marie Eleonore Tollenaere

The control of eukaryotic gene expression is intimately connected to highly dynamic chromatin structures. Gene regulation relies on activator and repressor transcription factors (TFs) that induce local chromatin opening and closing. However, it is unclear ...
