A compendium of chromatin contact maps reflecting regulation by chromatin remodelers in budding yeast

Abstract

The effect of ATP-dependent chromatin remodelers on 3D genome organization has not been well studied. Here the authors employ in situ Hi-C with an auxin-inducible degron system to degrade chromatin remodelers in yeast to find that the 3D structure of chromatin collapses in their absence. The chromatin remodeling can modulate 3D architecture depending on chromosomal context and cell cycle stage.
