Chromatin meets its organizers

Cell. 2013 Jun 6;153(6):1187-9. doi: 10.1016/j.cell.2013.05.030.

Abstract

Chromatin organization and gene-gene interactions are critical components of carrying out developmental programs. Phillips-Cremins et al. identify a series of unexpected architectural proteins that work in a combinatorial manner to functionally organize chromatin in a cell-type-specific manner at the submegabase-length scale.
