A Fluorescent Approach Reveals DNA Densities with Unprecedented Precision
It turns out that fluorescent proteins could be the key to understanding how our genetic code is organized. A new study has revealed that a fluorescent approach can be used to precisely measure the density of DNA in a cell. By using this method, scientists were able to determine the three-dimensional organization of DNA in the nuclei of cells, and how it can vary depending on the cell type. The findings could help to better understand how DNA is organized and regulated in different cells and tissues, and provide insights into diseases related to DNA organization.
