Interphase human chromosome exhibits out of equilibrium glassy dynamics
The 3D organization of chromosomes within the nuclear space is important for biological functions. Here the authors model chromosomes as self-avoiding copolymers with distinct epigenetic states, and show that the features of experimentally generated contact maps can be reproduced and their dynamics...
