A mechanism of cohesin‐dependent loop extrusion organizes zygotic genome architecture

Fertilization triggers assembly of higher-order chromatin structure from a condensed maternal and a naïve paternal genome to generate a totipotent embryo. Chromatin loops and domains have been detected in mouse zygotes by single-nucleus Hi-C (snHi-C), but not bulk Hi-C. It is therefore unclear when...
