Diffusion in fractal globules

Recent experiments suggest that the human genome (all of our DNA) is organised as a so-called fractal globule. The fractal globule is a knot--free dense polymer that easily folds and unfolds any genomic locus, for example a group of nearby genes. Proteins often need to locate specific target sites o...
