Chromatin Structure and “DNA Sequence View”: The Role of Satellite DNA in Ectopic Pairing of the <i>Drosophila</i> X Polytene Chromosome

Chromatin 3D structure plays a crucial role in regulation of gene activity. Previous studies have envisioned spatial contact formations between chromatin domains with different epigenetic properties, protein compositions and transcription activity. This leaves specific DNA sequences that affect chro...
