How does chromatin flexibility shape gene expression? A theoretical study reveals that the dynamic chromatin chain can promote enhancer-promoter (E–P) interactions by reducing energy barriers through transcriptional clustering. @XiakunC

Three-word sentences can make all the difference: 'I miss you.' 'I love you.'

I know many New Yorkers are anxious and worried. But we're all in this together. Let's support each other.
