STC for Quantitative Cell Biology Seminar: Taekjip Ha
Beckman Institute Room 3269 (3rd floor tower room)
Contact name: Lisa Johnson
Contact email: lisa3@illinois.edu
Taekjip Ha, Harvard Medical School, Boston Children's Hospital, and Howard Hughes Medical Institute, will lecture on "Biophysical Principles of Genome Organization Across Multiple Scales"
Abstract:
Recent advances in genetics, biochemistry, cell biology, and biophysics have contributed to our understanding that the genome is organized hierarchically, with higher-order macromolecular assemblies spanning spatial and temporal orders of magnitude. Beyond being wrapped around histones as irregular groups of “beads on a string”, chromatin is organized into topologically associated domains, which are composed of small and large loops, and form euchromatic and heterochromatic compartments. In this talk, I will present biophysical principles we are uncovering about genome organization across three different scales, including sequence-dependent DNA mechanics, chromatin loops for homology search, and polyamines' role in translating nucleosome condensability into 3D genome organization.
