Periodic Reporting for period 4 - Mechan-of-Chromo (Unfolding the Mechanism of Chromosome Cohesion and Condensation using Single-Molecule Biophysical Approaches)

Chromosome condensation, cohesion and segregation are fundamental biological processes whose failure leads to cell death, cancer and developmental defects. However, unravelling the mechanisms of DNA cohesion and condensation is a particularly challenging task because these...
