Sequence-dependent activity and compartmentalization of foreign DNA in a eukaryotic nucleus In eukaryotes, DNA-associated protein complexes coevolve with genomic sequences to orchestrate chromatin folding. We investigate the relationship between DNA sequence and the spontaneous loading and a...

Our latest work: how can compartmentalization emerge in a eukaryotic genome lacking canonical heterochromatin?
By investigating bacterial genomes put in yeast, we show that the presence or absence of transcription is sufficient!
