Analysis of 3D genomic interactions identifies candidate host genes that transposable elements potentially regulate

Abstract Background The organization of chromatin in the nucleus plays an essential role in gene regulation. About half of the mammalian genome comprises transposable elements. Given their repetitive nature, reads associated with these elements are generally discarded or randomly distributed among e...
