An extensive international study published in Nature reveals the complexities of the human "4D nucleome," detailing how its three-dimensional genome organization affects gene regulation and DNA replication across various cell states. Conducted by the NIH-funded 4D Nucleome Project, it compared multiple genome architecture assays, uncovering over 140,000 chromatin loops in stem cells and fibroblasts. The findings offer crucial insights for laboratories on assay selection and lay a foundation for predicting genome folding and interpreting genetic variants' roles in gene regulation.
