The human genome has to be carefully organized so it will fit inside of the nuclei of cells, while also remaining accessible to the cellular machinery that works to express the right genes at the ...

Researchers offer a first step towards understanding the source of the stable pattern of gene expression profiles by testing whether gene expression profiles are indeed established by a gene ...

It is not only functionally related genes that cluster in the mammalian genome: there also seems to be general clustering of apparently unrelated genes. Specialized genomic regions, such as the ...
