Description
DNA is folded into increasingly complex yet highly mobile
structures to organize the chromosomes. In this talk I will
describe work with Rolf Ohlsson’s lab at KI where we have
tried to quantify whether chromosome-chromosome interactions
are random or not, and (if it is not) can we say something
about the network structure of such interactions. The key
experimental technique is high throughput sequencing of both
read (short segements) known to interact with a known bait
sequence, as well as chimeric reads containing pieces from
different locations, in addition to the bait.
