Visualising the genome: researchers create first 3D structures of active DNA

Visualising the genome: researchers create first 3D structures of active DNA | Bioscience News - GEG Tech top picks | Scoop.it
BigField GEG Tech's insight:

Researchers from the University of Cambridge and the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology used a combination of imaging and up to 100,000 measurements of where different parts of the DNA are close to each other to examine the genome in a mouse embryonic stem cell. Stem cells are ‘master cells’, which can develop – or ‘differentiate’ – into almost any type of cell within the body.
