Extrusion without a motor: a new take on the loop extrusion model of genome organization
C. A. Brackley, J. Johnson, D. Michieletto +4
Chromatin loop extrusion is a popular model for the formation of CTCF loops and topological domains. Recent HiC data have revealed a strong bias in favour of a particular arrangeme…
