  5. 5. Crosstalk between environmental signals and 3d genome organization in the regulation of gene expression

    Author : Anna Lewandowska Ronnegren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []

    Abstract : The thesis explores the connection between environmental stimuli and gene expression regulated by the spatial changes in genome organization. In Paper I, by applying state of the art Circular Chromosome Conformation Capture assay (4C) and Chromatin in situ Proximity (ChrISP) techniques, we show that transcriptionally active circadian genes meet in space with repressed lamina-associated domains (LADs), and that these interactions are under the control of the circadian clock.
