Ever wonder how #TADs compare across the tree of life?Look no further & read our Review!!!

Find out what genes & 3D chromatin can & can't do in Bacteria! Archeae! Yeast! Plants! Animals!

SMCs & RNA-Pol are the only thing they have in common

hello bluesky , leaving the X trash, I’m interested by reproductive biology, sex determination, chromatin and all stuffs about gene regulation
