KSHV episomes reveal dynamic chromatin loop formation with domain-specific gene regulation

Genomic loops and their temporal dynamics play an important role in gene expression of DNA viruses, but are incompletely understood. Here, the authors use capture Hi-C analyses and identify genomic architectural dynamics of KSHV that are regulated by the viral transactivator K-Rta.
